The Quarter, a mega-million dollar dining, shopping and entertainment complex located at Tropicana Casino and Resort, debuted in November 2004 as one of the largest non-gaming expansions in Atlantic City.  Celebrating 1940s Havana, the three-story, 200,000-square-foot indoor facility replicates the Cuban capital’s vibrant “Old World” streetscape, representing the first Las Vegas-style destination in Atlantic City.  As Havana was home to the original Tropicana Casino and Resort, destiny has come full circle.   The Quarter also boasts the Havana Tower with 505 new guest rooms and group facilities that nearly double meeting space.  Tropicana Casino and Resort is now the largest hotel in the state of New Jersey, encompassing 14 acres along Atlantic City’s famed Boardwalk and beach.
