Atlantic City Amusement Piers
In Atlantic City's glorious past the Amusement Piers were one of the key reasons visitors came to Atlantic City. Now visitors come mainly for the casinos. But Atlantic City still has two amusement piers that are fun places. These are Steel Pier and Schiff's Central Pier.
