AC in the Good Ole Days Pt 1
During the early part of the 20th century, Atlantic City went through a radical building boom. Many of the modest boarding houses that dotted the boardwalk were replaced with large hotels. Two of the city's most distinctive hotels were the Marlborough-Blenheim Hotel and the Traymore Hotel.
In 1903, Josiah White III bought a parcel of land near Ohio Avenue and the boardwalk and built the Queen Anne style Marlborough House. The hotel was a hit and, in 1905–06, he chose to expand the hotel and bought another parcel of land next door to his Marlborough House. In an effort to make his new hotel a source of conversation, White hired the architectural firm of Price and McLanahan. The firm made use of reinforced concrete, a new building material invented by Jean-Louis Lambot in 1848 (Joseph Monier received the patent in 1867). The hotel's Spanish and Moorish themes, capped off with its signature dome and chimneys, represented a step forward from other hotels that had a classically designed influence. White named the new hotel the Blenheim and merged the two hotels into the Marlborough-Blenheim. Bally's Atlantic City was later constructed at this location.
The Traymore Hotel was located at the corner of Illinois Avenue and the boardwalk. Begun in 1879 as a small boarding house, the hotel grew through a series of uncoordinated expansions. By 1914, the hotel's owner, Daniel White, taking a hint from the Marlborough-Blenheim, commissioned the firm of Price and McLanahan to build an even bigger hotel. Rising 16 stories, the tan brick and gold-capped hotel would become one of the city's best-known landmarks. The hotel made use of ocean-facing hotel rooms by jutting its wings farther from the main portion of the hotel along Pacific Avenue.
One by one, additional large hotels were constructed along the boardwalk, including the Brighton, Chelsea, Shelburne, Ambassador, Ritz Carlton, Mayflower, Madison House, and the Breakers. The Quaker-owned Chalfonte House, opened in 1868, and Haddon House, opened in 1869, flanked North Carolina Avenue at the beach end. Their original wood-frame structures would be enlarged, and even moved closer to the beach, over the years. The modern Chalfonte Hotel, eight stories tall, opened in 1904. The modern Haddon Hall was built in stages and was completed in 1929, at eleven stories. By this time, they were under the same ownership and merged into the Chalfonte-Haddon Hall Hotel, becoming the city's largest hotel with nearly 1,000 rooms. By 1930, the Claridge, the city's last large hotel before the casinos, opened its doors. The 400-room Claridge was built by a partnership that included renowned Philadelphia contractor John McShain. At 24 stories, it would become known as the Skyscraper By The Sea. The city became known as the The World's Playground.

Coney Island Beach (New York)
We stopped by China Town and Coney Island Beach before heading back home. It was super humid, but we still end up enjoying the weather and its surrounding. The iconic Coney Island is bursting with activity throughout the summer and even during the off-season. Walk along the famous boardwalk, ride on amusement rides, enjoy swimming or sunbathing on its nearly three miles of sandy beaches, or check out the courts for beach volleyball, handball, and basketball.

New Jersey State Lunatic Asylum - [Abandoned NJ]
Founded by Dorothea Dix in 1848, this hospital is still partially in operation well over 100 years later. While certain wings of the Kirkbride are in complete disrepair, a fully operational psychiatric hospital still exists on the ground as well as a correctional facility. This hospital suffers from a bit of a morbid history as most of the other large asylums do. A doctor by the name of Henry Cotton was the medical director back in the beginnings of its operations. He believed that infections were a key cause to insanity and regularly would subject patients to having their teeth pulled, limbs amputated and other body parts cut open and removed. Thankfully, in recent years much has improved in treating psychiatric patients.

Consider a contribution to the Polar Bear Club of Coney Island as they seek to raise $80,000 for the continued growth and programming of our vibrant and diverse community. This year’s plunge will raise funds to create a more sustainable and cleaner environment, programming for Coney Island youth as well as improve quality of life for residents.

Hurricane Sandy and Devastating Aftermath NJ/NY Coast
On October 29, 2012 Hurricane Sandy made landfall near Atlantic City, New Jersey. Sandy generated a devastating storm surge that crippled portions of the United States mid Atlantic coastal areas from Maine to Florida. Superstorm Sandy as it is called is the largest Atlantic Hurricane on record spanning 1,098 miles. Storm chaser Jeff Piotrowski accompanied by Storm Chaser Jeremy Holmes arrived in New York several days before Superstorm Sandy made its way to landfall. This is a portion of their footage from that devastating weather system, along with portions of licensed footage from local residents of Long Beach and Manhattan. Relief efforts are still ongoing at this posting date of January 23, 2013. Please follow the links below to find out how you can help.
