The Casino | Original Fine Art Photograph by Colleen Kammerer

Greetings from Asbury Park:
Old Casino at the Asbury Park Boardwalk in New Jersey.

Asbury Park's Casino was completed in 1929-30, just as the Great Depression hit. It was designed by the architectural firm Warren & Wetmore, who were famous for many other public buildings in North American including New York's Grand Central Terminal. The Casino featured extensive use of cast bronze and sheet copper ornamentation. The Casino complex, included the Carousel,the Paramont Theater and Convention Hall.

The huge casino and its accompanying arcade boasted an assortment of amusements; from rides to concessions to year-round accommodations.

The Casino remained in relatively good condition through the 1960's but after the roof was stripped of its copper the building quickly began to deteriorate. Sadly, this nostalgic building continues its deterioration, and now the even the "Casino" Letters have worn away.
