Abstract
Description
One of the oldest names in the Atlantic City Hotel business is Haddon Hall � still around today as the home of Resorts Casino. In 1869 Samuel and Susanna Hunt opened Haddon Hall across the street from the Chalfonte, naming it after a manor in Derbyshire, England. The Haddon Hall that still stands today was completed in 1929. The 11-story wing facing the Boardwalk was constructed first, with the 15-story center and 11-story rear wings added later in the decade. Soon after the modern Haddon Hall was completed, it was merged by Leeds & Lippincott with the adjacent Chalfonte via a skyway, which still exists and can be seen today. The new Chalfonte-Haddon Hall complex consisted of 1,000 rooms and, at the time of its completion, was the city's largest hotel by capacity.
