I agree with everything you've posted. You would think that this
City would have a grant writer in residence, to have Convention Hall
and the Casino, declared a National Historic Site, wouldn't you?
Can't the National Park Service or some organization like that be
interested? Department of the Interior? the doors alone in Convention
Hall are irreplacable. The Hall itself is just a joy to walk around
in. The nostalgic ticket booths and I remember you paid a nickel, to
use the "CLEAN" rest-rooms, with the attendant/school-marm/monster
with the KEY! Seems there are restoration grants for every damned
thing else! Where are the know-it-alls now? I know that you can apply
for a grant through your assemblyman, or you USED to be able to
before Kean took over for the deceased Thomas Smith, who brought
Millions into the City, through his office, when it was in Asbury
Park! I don't even know where Keans' office IS!
