Yeah, after just being there on Monday I really wonder why people seem to think that it's a certainty that Asbury Park could never return to its glory days as an amusement area. It may be a certainty that they don't want it to be that type of town, but I can't see why people are so sure you can't have things be that way anymore when there is a town like Pt. Pleasant less than 10 miles away. I realize that property values are so high that it's tempting for condos and stuff, but there is definitely a lot of revenue being generated on that Pt. Pleasant boardwalk, tons of jobs, and crowds basically throughout the entire year - not just the summer. If Asbury Park wanted to return to that, it could. Yahoo!
