What is there to be parading about??
The public was promised certain performence, that if the existing
frame had to come down the site would be limited to the design
controls of the Plan. No higher than 8 stories
The public was lied to, The Council played a three-card-monte with
the PLANs no one seems to care. The press is playing this up to be a
great event, that the huge eyesore is going away. That point may hold
water, however...
Do they mention that the "New" building will be twice as big, topping
out at 16 an 12 stories compared to the single 10 floor tower being
demolished. Do they mention hat the City received nothing in return
for the increased building size.
Condo, Condos, everywhere as far as the eye can see... That is hardly
the restoration or rebirth of Asbury Park. The City is being badly
remodeled by leaders who have lost control, or never really had
control of redevelopment.
Even the recent praise for committing to restoration of the
beachfront buildings is rediculous. It should have been well under
way by years already.
What a sad place this is where the vast majority have no clue as to
the realities of this redevelopment and then praise any action taken
however contrary to the public good and due process.
