On the other side of the coin is the fact that there is some visible 
new construction being done on two sites. Note that Asbury Partners 
has nothing to do with those, they just sold the property to real 
developers.

At the Paramount Homes site along Kingley street one can now see the 
relationship of the building to the street line. I think a lot of 
people are in for a rude awakening when they realize how close the 
new building is to the street.

Take a look, imagine an 8 story vertical face where the building is 
currently rising out of he ground and then add 12 feet of solid 
sidewalk to the curb in front of it. There is no set-back, green 
space or buffer zone.

Kingsley street is going to be narrowed, crub-to-curb also, in 
addition to the 8 story walls on each side just 12 feet from the curb 
line. Ocean Avenue will be 2 way traffic, 1 lane each way.

High density, zero-setback, 100% lot coverage; development. That's 
what the entire waterfront redevelopment are will be. I realize that 
for some people it's the greatest thing since sliced cheese to them. 
And that is really sad.
