ACP’s first tenant, The Leadership Studio, an Atlantic City-based nonprofit committed to cultivating leaders and wellness through yoga opened its doors in October of 2017 on the beach block of Tennessee Avenue. Hayday Coffee’s original store was also part of the initial renaissance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59b815f5e9bfdfbcc641c2eb/3edae14b-65a4-4870-bb4d-29510c0c5d35/IMG_9016.jpeg Projects - CARDINAL Cardinal is Atlantic City's upscale casual restaurant where Contemporary American cuisine meets a warm, welcoming environment.

Simonsen) opened the city’s only independent coffee shop, Hayday Coffee, in the summer of 2018. Hayday quickly became a go-to community spot—a space for all to gather, share stories, and be inspired to realize change of their own. Hayday reopened in ACP’s Bywater building in December 2020. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59b815f5e9bfdfbcc641c2eb/e3124381-ff30-4096-9758-1f138e2e4563/IMG_0002.jpeg Projects - BYWATER Bywater is a gut renovation of a century-old 12-unit mixed-use building on New York Avenue completed in the summer of 2020.
