One last thing...there has been alot of talk abiout the original redevelopment
plan and its call for 3000 condos. Many wanted more of an entertainment focus
for the boardwalk and I agree. It looks like MM also agrees when you consider
the NJ State Hall of Fame, their support of the NJ MOMA in the heating plant,
etc. Gotta believe entertainment is great for MM...people come for a Saturday
night show gotta eat and drink and maybe even shop before and after it...
