As I remember, the site of the PRSL Station in AC is surrounded by highways.
The minor league ballpark is west of AC. Bader Field just recently closed.
The new rail terminal was built for Amtrak service & is now used by NJT. The Convention Center was built several years later but attached to the station.
An outlet center has been built just east of the station to try to revitalize the area between the station & the casinos.

  No, it's just a big open park where the terminal stood.
