Glenn, You're absolutely right! Why doesn't the hypocrisy of it all, NOT surprise me? At the 110th Anniversary, thing, the Carousel was used for the cake, but still, no carousel in the city, except in our minds, which I lost a long time ago! My mind, that is! Well, the snow is falling and AP schools are open, as usual! Seems they'd give these kids ONE snow day, since they haven't had any all year! As far as the Chamber, it's just a popularity contest, as far as I'm concerned. Name me one member, no 2, that live here! A lot of what goes on here, is just so window dressing! Too many restaurants, with no real business, here. Well, at least Tommy is consistent, with being a Republican; seems he owns an oil business, here! Read it in the paper. Weldon's pensions suspended. Have mixed feelings over that. His firemen's pension, shouldn't have been involved. Seems he earned that. He still has his family. Sorry folks, they shouldn't have to pay for his mistakes.

You took the words, right out of my mouth! These 34 to 40 somethings, don't want anything, but singles stuff and their little martini bars and beach houses! I came to the boardwalk, to have a kosher hot dog and REAL lemonade! The fresh air and the funny looking fat/skinny and buffed boys and girls, taking the surf! The sounds of summer and the isolation in winter, when you had the BW to yourself! Would see dogs being walked, a lone runner or goofy me, walking the boards. Now, you have to contend with those who think they knowitall about US! For those who remember miniature golf and the cutesy rides for kids, go to seaside Hts., there's nothing here for YOU!

The problem was not just the isolation in the winter, but the isolation in the summer. And don't forget, bringing events back to CH year round - like the old days. The off months were ceramic shows, boat shows and more. Ceramic shows were the almost the best weekends of the year and that was around Feb - march if i can think back that far. It wasn't kids or 30's somethings. It was busloads and busloads of seniors getting off at CH or Michael's and eating. What creates memories is a starting point with a family To assume that a childless couple will be buying a condo is simply wrong and could be what didn't exactly help anyone's condo sale s in AP. Example - an empty nester coouple from Morriss Plains - retired. Grandkids. House in Florida, Morris Plains, kids in PA and Virginia. They want to summer in AP most of the time, keep house in Morris Plains and head to Fl in October. They have $1m to spend. Why were they turned off? A) they were trying to accomoodate their lifestyle (grandchildren, kids..) B) unable to select a unit or had limited choice -take it or leave it C) unsure of what the grandkids would do (pool was a real plus) d) time frame for development One of these days there's going to be a huge outlet center off 66 and the parkway. You have a few new motels that sprung up from the collingswood circle to 66. You hvae a few more that want space. Seaview Sq is continuing to grow. Burlingtong going in plus a few more not named, Value City out. Burlington taking part of the old lowe's.. I would guess MM has a good idea fo what THEY think will work and how they will make it pay off. IF there is one smart old time operator on the BW, they will be able to take advantage, keep to tradition and do very, very well, There's a way to make it kid friendly were it doesn't turn out like seaside nor as kid friendly as Point.

They said they had ideas for it, but i'm guessing it's nothing major or else they would have had it ready.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Asbury Park Chamber Names Carousel Awards
These are just thoughts, i have no idea if they're true. Maybe the freehold mall has their double decker carousel becasue they can afford it? Does the Freehold Mall bring in a large profit? From the area, and the percentage of high end stores, i'm guesing yes. It may have been an attraction, something done becasue they could afford to do it. Weather it makes money or it doesn't, it brings in people. But that could only have been done becasue the mall in general brings in enough extra money. Maybe Monmouth doesn't do well enough to spend on such an attraction. One that may not give back much. - Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage.
