Philly developer Bart Blatstein has big plans for Pier Shops in A.C.

Blatstein and his development partner, architect Paul Steelman, bought the complex last fall but ran into legal trouble with Caesars Entertainment, which owned the water rights underneath the pier. A deal involving back rent and future considerations was hammered out last month, allowing the project to go forward. Steelman said its first phase should be ready by July 4th weekend, with the rest ready around Christmas.
