Won't happen, but since the question was unconditional, a new Casino.
As bad as the unfinished condos and construction sites look, most of them are
inland. You
see a construction site surrounded by asphalt streets or sidewalks, there is a
level of
continuity and logic to it. You can work around it. However, the site of a
rusting stone and
steel foundation for a demolished building has a starker and more jarring
visual effect on
sand, next to the ocean. Particularly when you want people to feel comfortable
recreating
on that sand with their friends and family.
Does a parent want their kid building sand castles if there's a possibility a
tetanus-
inducing rusty nail or pipe could be in that sand? Are people going to want to
play
volleyball or frisbee, which often involves diving full-body into the sand, if
they think they
might land on a nail or broken glass? Whether everything has been done to clean
the
beach or not, impressions matter.
This goes for the north end of Ocean Grove as well. They have to deal with that
mess on
some level too.
The beach is your number one draw in summer. Live music is number two. Fix that
Casino,
and you kill two birds with one stone.
