The Boardwalk hums like a living map — gulls calling, surf pushing cool air up from the ocean, neon reflections skipping across wet planks. You tap open the Let’s Roam app at 1000 Boardwalk and the city becomes a game board: Steel Pier dares you to remember performers past, the Carnegie Library Center offers a quiet clue, and the Hard Rock’s lights challenge you to look closer.
