George Stewart Photo Location

George Stewart U.S. 40 Photograph No. 01 - Beginnings of U.S. 40

16th Floor - Hilton Hotel
3417 Pacific Avenue
Atlantic City, NJ 08401

George Stewart shot his photograph from the roof of the President Hotel. That hotel was razed in the 1970s and an alternate location had to be found. I tried hiring a helicopter but none of the charter services agree (their reasons centered on air space restrictions). I contacted all of the management and residents at the nearby Enclave condominium but no one wanted to let me photograph. My third choice, albeit not the most ideal, was to photograph from the nearby Hilton Hotel. I shot this photograph from the 16th floor. The War Memorial is on the far left. Albany Avenue (Route 40) runs diagonally from the memorial to the right side of the photo.
