With all the positive things going on and a seemingly successful business model in place on the boardwalk, the issue of neglect somehow still haunts the beautiful waterfront treasures of Asbury Park. Enough neglect will ultimately cause the demise of a building. We've seen it with the Casino, the Charms Building, and now the Band Shell is the latest casualty.
What about Convention Hall? What ever happened to the copper ornamentation below the second floor windows? Been missing for over a year now. That ornamentation also serves as a flashing which prevents water damage to the structure itself. And the more time it's off, the worse off for the structure. In no way am I saying that Convention Hall is being left to rot away intentionally, but it's pretty evident that restoration work has come to a hault on the building for quite some time. Is there any knowledge of where the copper ornamentation has vanished off to, or why it's gone in the first place? ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
