I don't remember there being supermarkets on the street squares of Atlantic City. Just tacky green houses and tacky red hotels.

(Er, sorry...)

It was very odd doing an entirely new city and already knowing pretty much every street name.

This is updated through 1976 now, though there were few new additions--actually, only one: an A&P on Absecon Boulevard. The 1976 directory is the last that lists any chains and the 1981 was apparently the last published.
