The world’s first boardwalk was constructed in Atlantic City in 1870 to help reduce the amount of sand tracked into nearby hotels and casinos. As more hotels, shops, restaurants and casinos sprouted up along the seaside, Atlantic City became one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States. As of 2012, the boardwalk remains the longest in the world—stretching for six miles.
