With multiple music venues side by side you'll notice two things right away.

I was lucky enough to be invited to their VIP Preopening Party June 25th and the concept works. The idea was to emulate Beale Street in Memphis or Bourbon Street in New Orleans or Music Row in Nashville. T Street is just the first phase of The Playground the impressive renovation to the former Pier at Caesars that is changing the face of entertainment options in Atlantic City. Are these the same guys Giuliani kicked out of Times Square ? Unfortunately on the boardwalk there are still handicapped beggars and men wearing old military uniforms out there. Maybe another poster can verify if this was the former Steel Pier, where we used to watch horses jump into the ocean in the 1960’s! Egad! This Pier is convenient to Bally’s and Trump Tower and a weather permitting stroll from the rest of the Boardwalk hotels. There is an outdoor observation deck Pier. I hate and may I exaggerate, HATE shopping malls but this place was delightful and worth a stroll to the end of the pier for the ocean views and breeze. Thankfully no return lines or holiday crowds to detract from the clear elevator rides, hourly fountain shows, free form staircases and beautiful décor and water sculptures. This place is actually a mall, with Rodeo drive shops mixed with modern upscale mall staples. Beach grass and lofty wooden chairs face the view so sitting in the sun with toes in the sand was a reality even on the first day of January. What a treat it is to go into the Pier! We were fortunate to have a warm clear sunny day and the view from the third floor was spectacular. Well, it is at the Pier attached to Caesars via sky walk, or the boardwalk. Because it was New Years Day and I was traveling with darling husband and sons we chose a sports bar, Game On which we thought was at Caesars.
