Long History for the Steel Pier

Chances are you and/or your children enjoyed countless hours of fun at the Steel Pier!

It's been a part of Atlantic City for over 100 years. It opened in 1898 - and it's been a place of entertainment ever since.

It wasn't just the amusements that drew people to this iconic pier. It was the entertainment - the bands, the diving horses.

Performers at the pier have included Frank Sinatra, The Three Stooges, Bob Hope, Charlie Chaplin and more!

There was a time that Donald Trump held ownership of the pier.

The Steel Pier was seen in several movies, with scenes filmed near or on the pier.

It's definitely a big piece of Atlantic City - and it could be yours for "only" 85 Million Dollars.
