Above and beyond that faded sign for a long-forgotten produce market is another sign, to all appearances a giant golf ball. It's teed up atop the Revel, a half-mile in the distance, at 47 stories the tallest structure in Atlantic City. When the hotel-casino opened in 2012, that distinctive illuminated spheroid was dubbed "The Pearl," in recognition of the Revel's reward program for high rollers. Little more than two years later, it went dark: The Revel was one of four Atlantic City casinos to shutter in 2014. Looking ahead, which of these two signs will outlast the other? My money's on the greengrocer.
