I don't want to tick anybody off with this post, because traffic at our boardwalk has been great. But, I honestly don't understand why the 1st Ave. pavilion was built up to it's current height instead of one of the other pavilions. We've mentioned the blocking of the Empress views, but what about the concept that most of that pavilion isn't even visible from inland? Wouldn't it have made more sense to build up a pavilion that isn't obscured? I think it really sucks that the Empress has to suffer since they've been a successful business for so long. It's the only oceanfront hotel we have. Oceanfront rooms get a premium price. Somebody else suggested that maybe the Empress should add on a few floors. At who's expense? Certainly not theirs. Their view has been blocked by MM. Also, isn't it a waste to have the MM offices in a pavilion? It's vanity for them, but it's also a waste of prime boardwalk space. That pavilion would be a great place to add in lockers and showers, which would help keep people at our beach longer.
