OK - lets explore that... You are living there, part of the community and view things from that perspective, day to day, seeing small incrimental changes in the positive direction, busy managing you life, work etc. Partaking in the events.
Your postings indicated you are content to have fun and not know much about redevelopment or architecture. I dont live there, but the internet gives me access to volumes of information. Im not interested in the day to day stuff or having fun there all the time. I am interested in going someplace that has character and history. A place that is part of American culture where I can see icons and feel like great care was taken to respect the place. Thats where I like to spend my $$$. Yes apperances and expectations are everything to me and every other $$$ spending person that may chooses to visit. That explains our differing perspective more than eanything, You seem to want to hold AP for yourself and the others like you that live there. Open up and let others in and take in there observations, things you may not even care or think about. .follow--- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, "Gabrielle Obre" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I had to add more, please excuse.
