The Playground at Caesars, Atlantic City

Nice looking mall, but barely anything to do. There are only about 3 or 4 stores open in the entire mall and the restaurants were closed too. I'm not sure if more things will open up during the summer but I was here during April 2023 and it was pretty dead. Definitely do not go out of your way to come here. It's nice to stop by if you're passing though. I still gave it a very high rating because there was good music playing, the views are nice, and I managed to get myself a ring from one of the stores that was actually opened. I've wanted a cheap, silver ring for a couple of years now but never actually got around to purchasing one so I'm glad the opportunity presented itself here. The store owner was nice. Basically everything in the store was $10, but because we purchased a lot of things, he told us that we can pick out 4 rings for $10 so I ended up getting my ring for only $2.50. My sister picked out the other 3 for herself. I hope more places open up here and it becomes busy again because it's honestly a really nice building and has a nice ambience.

In Atlantic City for the day and stumbled upon this vacant mall. Only had 1 open business left, a jewelry store that appears to be closing too. The view from the seats in the 3rd floor was great. Sad to see so much of AC empty. — at Atlantic City Playground on the water. “This mall is officially Abandoned this mall is America summed up in nutshell corporate greed has led to ever store fleeing this mall, the owner have nobody to play but themselves. Truly embarrassing”.

Kind of a monument to late-stage capitalism at this point; the majority of the mall is deserted, with only a couple businesses still open. Very surreal experience, but also quite neat. One of my favorite stops on our trip to AC, as it was one of the very, very few places that wasn't a consistent, overwhelming din of awful music at hearing loss inducing decibel ratings.

Due to the time of the year many stores restaurants were closed. Combine that with the fact that we're in a COVID economy and there wasn't a lot of places that were really open. It's a nice location. Three levels on the third level you can only come down via elevator or escalators. You cannot walk across into Caesars The second level and first level. Second level you can walk across on the sky bridge enclosed protected from the elements. The first level you walk underneath the sky bridge and you're out with a wind can can hit you. There were some people who were walking the top level end to end cuz it's pretty damn long and a good place to get your exercise. They're also generic non-specified seating where someone could grab their lunch, bring it with them and sit down and just chill. So it was a nice atmosphere but again very subduated and sedated because of this time of year and post COVID.

I would highly recommend a visit but the place is incredibly sad. You can see what was once a great looking mall, and it almost appears it still could be, but it's largely empty now. Why the high rating? It's a nice spot in the AC that sits almost directly on the water. Just head to the third floor and all the way down the hall for a great view. Seeing the 70s theming is neat as well. Overall, another great location with absolutely great potential that has been left abandoned and empty. I hope someone can find a good use one day for this awesome spot.
