Steel Pier is a 1,000-foot-long (300 m) amusement pier in Atlantic City, New Jersey, located across The Boardwalk from Trump Taj Mahal.
The pier was owned by Trump Entertainment Resorts until 2011, when it was sold to the Catanoso Family under the "Steel Pier Associates, LLC" name. The Catanosos previously leased the pier to operate the amusement park before the sale. Steel Pier continues to operate as an amusement pier, and is one of the most successful family-oriented attractions in the city.

Possess them not with fear. Take from them now
The sense of reckoning, ere th’ opposed numbers
Pluck their hearts from them.”

nor Pier della Francesca; Zuan Bellin’ not by usura

Came no church of cut stone signed: Adamo me fecit.”
