I guess it depends on which period you are going to choose.  1930's or 1970's 
these seem to be highlights in Asbury.  For 1970's I would guess it would be 
the basic ugly cobra lights.  Maybe since Asbury has such a varied history a 
new look would be welcomed.

werner -
 
i think i must have miss read something you said at one point. i thought at one 
point you said the lights should releate to the buildings?  you, or someone 
else im guessing spoke of the lights not blending in with the curent buidlings, 
or any of the planned ones???  implying the lights should blend with the 
buildings.  then later you said ...
 
"Regarding design - Street lighting should relate to the streets not the 
buildings as you assert. It is a public amenity that should acknowledge 
and reinforce the history and significance of Asbury Park's street grid."
 
i thought you were contradicting yourself!   cant find the post, so maybe it 
wasnt you who said it!    if the lights should reflect the areas streetscape 
you speak of?  what era of asbury park did the lights reflect what your talking 
about?  im looknig at old pictures, and even some from very long ago, look like 
an older version of the large cobra head ilghts.  is this the type of lighting 
that is more appropriate with the grid shape your talking about?  no pun 
intending, just trying to figure out what style light from your historic point 
of view would have been better?
