Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino is a Trump branded casino-hotel resort located on the Boardwalk in Atlantic City, New Jersey at Mississippi Avenue. Designed by architect Martin Stern, Jr., it was built in 1984 and is owned by Trump Entertainment Resorts, which also owns and operates Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort and Trump Marina (both located in Atlantic City). Trump Plaza is adjacent to the Atlantic City Boardwalk Hall.
The complex was at the center of a major eminent domain court case in the mid-1990s, when Trump Enterprises sought to obtain the property of Vera Coking, a retired homeowner whose house was adjacent to Trump Plaza. (picture) In Coking vs. C.R.D.A., Donald Trump, and Trump Plaza, Mrs. Coking was victorious,[1] and plans to build a limousine parking lot on her property were thwarted.
The hotel consists of 2 towers: The Main Tower and The East Tower.
There is a Rainforest Cafe in Trump Plaza.
The World Wrestling Federation also held WrestleMania at the Trump Plaza in 1988 (WrestleMania IV) and 1989 (WrestleMania V).
