ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — It's the most spectacular and costly failure in Atlantic City's 36-year history of casino gambling: the $2.4-billion Revel Casino Hotel emptied its hotel Monday. The casino itself will shut early Tuesday morning.

Revel is shutting down a little over two years after it opened, aiming to revitalize Atlantic City's struggling gambling market
