Boardwalk Hall
Atlantic City, NJ

Boardwalk Hall has been restored as a national icon with annual attendance exceeding 1.5 million and annual revenues exceeding $50 million.  The 196,000 sf renovation and restoration included the construction of 119,500 sf of new floor area, resulting in seating for 14,000 for boxing, 13,520 for concerts, and 10,500 for hockey.  Components of the project included new rigging, lighting, sound, broadcast support systems, improved sightlines, restrooms, concessions, and novelty stands.  Boardwalk Hall won awards such as the Preservation Project of the Year Award from NJ Historic Preservation Office, and the American Society of Civil Engineers’ NJ’s Top 10 Civil Engineering projects over the last 150 years.

 
“The renovation to Atlantic City’s Boardwalk Hall was a one-of-a-kind project that transformed an historic Building into a state-of-the-art special events arena. I am proud of the completed project and I am thrilled to see the facility receiving the recognition it deserves on the state level.  The prestigious awards bestowed upon the Hall reinforce what we here in South Jersey have known for some time, that Boardwalk Hall is a state-wide historical treasure.”
