More than 300 hotel rooms on the Boardwalk will be converted into studio apartments under a proposal from Showboat Renaissance.
It is the second section of the former hotel and casino to be approved to become residential units.
The Board of Directors of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority unanimously approved a site plan for the project Tuesday. The CRDA wields planning authority within the Tourism District.
As outlined in the application filed with the CRDA, the plan would convert the 308 hotel rooms at the property at 801 Boardwalk into 312 studio apartments.
This is the second tower of the former casino hotel to undergo such a transformation, Lance Landgraf, the director of planning and development for the CRDA, told the board Tuesday.
