Well, NJ is a world onto its own, regardless of the legality. MD in NY, and most other projects I have been involved with that include eminent domain have the master developer actually developing. It is unconstitutional for the MD to make a profit by flipping a property that was taken regardless of what the Monmouth County courts have said. Absent eminent domain, I do not disagree with you, however, we are talking about a real competent master developer. We do not have that. I expect that the CAFRA permit cost Partners a pretty sum. I think they have all of their money back now. The fact is that the lack of other subdevelopers during the past market speaks volumes. We are at a critical juncture here. COnsidering how the residential market is going, perhaps it is a blessing in disguise that not more condo projects are in the ground, although I think AP is a special case that needs to show CONTINUAL progress. What is of the utmost importance is that the boardwalk buildings be developed NOW. If four years go by with no progress we are in trouble. Three strikes and you are out. The hosuing market can be in the doldrums for a couple of years. The boardwalk can still draw people (if developed) and will have people wait in line for the new condos when the market improves. They will believe its for real. Yahoo!
