The Real Boardwalk Empire


An aerial view of hotels along the Atlantic City, NJ board during the late 1920s. (Click on the photo for a larger view.) Don't know if you're as smitten with HBO's Boardwalk Empire as I am... but either way, it's a rush to see the real thing. I've been to the A.C. boardwalk this past summer, and let me tell ya: it don't look like this no more.

I found this photo in an online collection at the website of The Library Company of Philadelphia, which is a motherlode for Philly history nerds. (If you dig aerials, definitely check out the Aero Service Negative collection right here.) Wait until you see the Philly waterfront photos I dug up...
