About Us

Since 1984, the first year of existence of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority and the 26 years that have followed, CRDA has reinvested over $1.8 billion in over 400 projects across the state according to its statutory mandates. In Atlantic City alone, we have reinvested over $1.5 billion.

The only agency of its kind nationwide – the CRDA has used casino reinvestments as a catalyst for meaningful, positive improvement in the lives of New Jersey residents statewide. In doing so, the CRDA has dramatically changed Atlantic City’s residential, commercial, cultural, and social landscape, while financially supporting quality-of-life improvement efforts throughout New Jersey.

CRDA started with a substantial commitment to housing in Atlantic City. Over the years, we have reinvested over $350 million in housing and neighborhood development. We have built over 1500 housing units and have transformed the Northeast Inlet section of the City.
