History

The historic length of the boardwalk, before the 1944 Great Atlantic Hurricane hurricane, was about 7 miles (11.2 kilometers) and it extended from Atlantic City to Longport, through Ventnor and Margate. As of 2008, the city has a population of 35,770, with 266,268 people living in the Atlantic City–Hammonton, New Jersey metropolitan statistical area. The combined length of the Atlantic City and Ventnor boardwalks—the boardwalk now ends at the Ventnor/Margate border—is approximately 5.75 miles (9.25 kilometers), currently the world's longest boardwalk. The first boardwalk was built in 1870, along a portion of the beach to help hotel owners keep sand out of their lobbies. Atlantic City became a popular beach destination because of its proximity to Philadelphia.
