Consumption lounges are already planned in Atlantic City as well as in Elizabeth, Trenton, and Jersey City, the news site reported.
In Atlantic City specifically, the city designated a new “green zone” for cannabis companies to set up shop in and has not capped any license types. One city official told the news site he’d like to see a consumption lounge attached to every legal dispensary.
High Rollers Dispensary, in which investor Jon Cohn has an ownership stake, hopes to open a $3.5 million and 3,700-square-foot consumption lounge in a former hotel about a block from the boardwalk. The lounge could be open as soon as this summer or fall, Cohn told the Press of Atlantic City.
