Sandy’s impact on A.C. boardwalk, Philly’s new casino proposals

    Good morning, Feeders!

    Is it possible that Hurricane Sandy did some Shore towns a favor? Tom MacDonald has a story on the way about the Atlantic City boardwalk, how much storm damage it has and what really needs to be replaced.Lizz Fiedler is finishing up another marathon story. Today, we’ll hear from people who are running Philly’s marathon instead of New York’s, despite already having spent a decent chunk of change in NYC.

    And we can’t ignore the casino discussion that’s heating up in Philly. Lizz will take a look at the applications for the city’s second license that were due yesterday, and a Congressman’s proposal for a city-owned casino.

    Taunya English will have more post-election health care coverage for us, and Azusa Uchikura is talking to the folks in Bridgeton who are about to get their Civil War statue’s head back.
