dc.descriptionThe Boardwalk Arcade Building was built in Atlantic City's roaring heyday before the Great Depression. The bustling Boardwalk National Bank had outgrown its space in a local hotel and decided to build a new headquarters at Tennessee Avenue and the Boardwalk. It was a time when the boardwalk was a major vacation and entertainment hub � the place to see and be seen. The two-story high, barrel-vaulted arch at the boardwalk entrance defined the building. When it opened in April 1927 there were 103 stores and offices in the building. At one time, it served at the headquarters for the Miss America Pageant . Today it is the headquarters for the New Jersey Casino Control Commission,
