Atlantic City by car 1991 - Trump Taj Mahal Casino Trump City? Rotten!

[@JuanBlaktv]

I was born and raised in Atlantic City, last time I was there was 1991. Everything in this video is exactly how it was when I left, you even had clips of my old neighborhood in here. This is an awesome little time capsule. It was like going back home again to the time I left, just for a little while. Thank you for this.

[@vnyc82]

Look at those old cars and buses lol. I gotta start recording my trips so I can look back at current times

[@Maxxroad]

Im from Oakland/San Francisco. I grew up in the Bay Area in the 1980s/1990s and still reside there till this day. I love seeing old footage like this. Reminds of my childhood. Reminds of my youth and not having responsibilities. Back when adults took care of me. Now I'm a working stiff like everyone in this video. One day I'll be old and 2020 will be 30 years ago.

Rest in peace, Taj Mahal, Atlantic City hotel

[@kimberlydelson1691]

Love the music. Very late 80s/early 90s.

[@pedrofeliciano7222]

Love this video 2020 looking back

[@bahgawd8158]

Atlantic city's casinos are like gold bars in a dumpster. The dumpster being the rest of Atlantic city. You can look at a big bright casino..then look across the street..20 feet away..and see nothing but shit. it's crazy. but anyway, love the video!!

[@Maxxroad]

Thats pretty much anywhere in the world.

[@material___]

Same in Detroit. There are homeless sitting right outside the doors of 3 huge casinos, begging for money.

[@MIKIEEYEZ1975]

[@edlore4948]

Thank You… feels like then . I miss my friends that are no longer with us . I wouldn’t trade it for anything being there in the 90s 🙌🏼🙏🏼

[@MrBmxbrawler]

The best A.C. video to date. Love the cars and the music. Trump is not in Atlantic city whatsoever anylonger. Except the abandoned Plaza. Golden nugget and Hard Rock took over the Taj and the Marina.

[@omarlanfranco5012]

Thanks for the video I lived there for a year back in 1991.

[@calvincrews3885]

Atlantic City is still my home by the sea

[@eriesurfer10]

music is sweet!

[@zippyman818]

This is amazing quality. What kind of camera did you use? The Taj was bigtime back then. Now it's on the verge of becoming one of the biggest Motel 6's in the country.

[@dw1985]

Ah yes AC the host of wrestlemania 4 and 5! Good times indeed. Sad to see what has become of that city

[@dirtypairXX]

@zippyman818 Oh, it was a Sony Video 8 Camera. Not even Hi 8. Today, with DV, I must say the quality was not as bad as we think today. And the recordings were played until now by the original tapes with a Hi 8 Camera to a DV Camera. After 20 years of age.

[@Unkle_Mike]

1:15-2:10 the neighborhood where I was raised, South Inlet

[@themansayz]

When I came to AC in 1993 and worked there until 1999 not much had really changed it look pretty much like this throughout the 90`s. Now this Atlantic City is gone for the most part, so much of it was cleared away.

[@Localonthe8s]

Back when AC had a near 30 year monopoly on gaming along the East Coast. The Taj is still a big casino although it's been struggling with declining gambling revenue lately.

[@MrBmxbrawler]

Hard Rock Hotel and Casino today

[@Localonthe8s]

@@MrBmxbrawler yup

[@johnnyzeee5215]

Remember it well. The Expressway entrance and old bus station before the Walk shopping, some places are gone, some have improved, many look the same.

[@LegendOfTheOld]

"Survive till '95" as some very successful business man once coined.

[@Jones22_]

Great video!!

[@njacks90nj]

What is this song called.

[@Brandespada]

Decaying surrondings mirror the country's decay. If you wish a genuine thrill don't miss the real Taj Mahal in India.

[@PhillyBagel]

Hard Rock got rid of the onion domes and elephants. It would be cool if someone kept a few but I suspect they were all destroyed.

[@calvincrews3885]

My favorite beginning of that video is the Atlantic City municipal bus terminal at arctic and Arkansas Avenues with the garage wich it used to be named the reading seashore terminal and everyone even me and my family went to the terminal back in the 90s before it was demolished 20+ years with all new jersey transit buses like the eagle model AE 20 commuter coaches and mci mc9 series like the mc9A and mc9B commuter coaches and mc9 crusader ii coaches and Grumman Flxible 870 ADB buses

[@alaqzishan7383]

Love 💝 🌹🌺🌷the Trump Taj Mahal all tho it was a casino😀

[@abrahamironman1010]

In this year now is HARD ROCK 🎸 today 2018

[@hey_buddy_waz_up]

Trump, errr, investors, paid a billion dollars for that gaudy looking thing?

[@cynthiabrent6479]

Pretty obvious that Donald Trump did Atlantic City, NJ absolutely no favors with those "casino hotels." Humph!!

[@vickhones9961]

Corrupt government leaders did AC no good. Trump helped AC and gave employment to all walks of life. Get educated !!!

[@JH-tg3qg]

@@vickhones9961 correct the CDRC is just another NJ democratic run corrupt dumping ground!

[@RevolverOcelot2008]

I stayed in the Taj Mahal back in 2012 or 2013 it wasn't bad. It is messed up that he never paid some of the contractors for the work though. The Casino tailed and is now the Hard Rock Casino so karma I guess. It did make me chuckle though because the Hard Rock Cafe was the restaurant in The Taj Mahal before it failing

[@14Maxmom]

I went to see Rush at Mark G Etess arena in may, and going through AC was kind of unsafe. I mean it was a little freaky walking to the Arena and having to walk through the run down city.

[@labtob]

where is this music from?

[@dirtypairXX]

I think, it was from the video-cut-software.

[@JimDee885]

Love this.

[@gchijioke12]

The Nicky Scarfo days

[@sgtzomie787]

I remember those busses

[@TheGoodWario]

Long Live Rock

[@dirtypairXX]

In diesem Jahr 1991 wurde das Taj Mahal mit Riesen-Bimborium eröffnet! Nun steht der Palast seit mehr als einem Jahr leer! Die Bude ist pleite und der zukünftige Präsident Trump will nichts mehr mit den Casinos zu tun haben. Nun gilt sein Intersse wohl für 4 Jahre dem White House! Zu hoffen bleibt, die Pleiten setzen sich nicht auch da noch fort!

[@abbygamepop]

They didn’t btw (also love the miku pfp 💙)

[@calvincrews3885]

my favorite part is the municipal bus terminal at Arctic & Arkansas Avenue with the mechanic shop and washing room for the buses the red and tan lines mcimc9 the nj transit grummman flxible 870's buses eagle model AE 20 commuter coach mci mc9 series the original the mc9a and mc9b commuter coaches the grummman jitneys Chevrolet GMC kurbmaster the jitneys were white with blue and gold stripe I've believe Atlantic City was the only one who have jitneys built from step vans until they went out of service in the late 90s Atlantic City sure was best in its day oh and Atlantic express mci 102 C3 really awesome video the future is unknown but the past is better anyway

[@tjm2678]

wow..whata difference

[@abrahamironman1010]

That casino opened in 1990 an closed 2016

[@stevedistefano9902]

atlantic city looks the same but worse once all the casinos go it will be a island for junkies and inner city life

In the video looks like a ghost town.

They'll eventually blow this dump up.

[@JMMT7022801]

Atlantic City's a fucking dump. All they have to do is drop Chris Christie from a helicopter to do the job. His massive weight is enough to destroy a building

[@MIKIEEYEZ1975]

I HAVE A PREDICTION THEY WILL BUILD A HARD ROCK CASINO WHERE THE TAJ IS!! JUST A HUNCH!!

The next year, rap group Gang Starr filmed a music video there! “Dwyck” RIP Guru!!🙏🏽
