About this postcard

The boardwalk leads toward Young's Million Dollar Pier, a long pavilion with two square towers and rows of arched windows. Pedestrians in early-1900s dress walk the wide promenade in the foreground, with a railing and string lights overhead. Young's was one of the large amusement piers that lined Atlantic City's boardwalk in the early 1900s. The pier and its neighbors drew visitors with shops, theaters, and seaside amusements, while the boardwalk served as the resort's main promenade.
