I'd support that. Although ReVision has had much success in the Carousel House, I'd think that they would agree that it is not the prime space. I personally rallied a while back to get the sister Carousel to the original Carousel back in that carousel house and I met with opposition that it should be *given* to ReVision. And, yes, there IS a sister Carousel and it was available. Maybe it still is. Anyhow. The issue at hand is theater. Personally, I have not witnessed ReVison performances (partly due to the the opposition of my effort and partly due to the fact that our schedules never mesh), but I have heard TERRIFIC reviews! I was in town for the Tommy dress rehearsal and what I saw was magnificent. ReVision needs better than a carousel house and there is a Carousel out there somewhere waiting for a home. I see the flip side too, Revison has kept the carousel house living. I also fear that the Casino and the Carousel House are falling subject to Demolition upon Neglect. Though, I suspect that the Arthur Pryor Bandshell will be the next loss. :-( Everything seems to start with the roof.

Tillie doesn't belong to WB, Palace or AP... straight outta Coney Island My aunt makes sure to remind me of that all the time lol Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry -Original Message- From: oakdorf oakd...@yahoo.com Sender: AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2010 22:14:19 To: AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com Reply-To: AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com Subject: [AsburyPark] Re: Baronet's Gone! Let's look forward. What was wanted in AP: Burned, collapsed or was simply leveled. One of these days, someone will come up with an entertainment square - sure it will be the original - but it sure can tie on the downtown, the boardwalk and the residential areas. I'd to make it real - as I said I'd tie in all those old AP brand names. They might not be in the original, but the theme can live on. Shit, even Tillie found a new home on the Wonder Bar - is that right or wrong? sure sells shirts so is Tillie the face of AP, the Palace or the WB?? Do a survey one day outside the WB. There's names I know and names Mario knows even better. Call it fake or whatever. It will be ADA compliant, safe and draw a hell of alot of people. Not pier - but a fun and live entertainment district. That has always been MM's mantra in their lifestyle centers. This could be one that is REAL...and very cool. We all have visions. glad I don't get excited about them anymore. Visions need cash. A contempary art musuem, a music museum, a pinball musuem, a music studio, saving a building, opening a popcorn store or selling something with AP on it. It all takes money, time and ingenuity - and the land or building to take a shot at success or failure. You can't have a great music destination with no music studio, can you? Take some of the billions tossed at the schools and use some of that to have the BOE build a theatre - for the students that can be leased back per event to any theatre group. The problem is, everyone with a vision wants someone to provide prime space for nothing. Read about every musuem in the US - read about the Guggenheim. Better yet, try donating time to some cause or board without pulling your hair out. I'd rather watch sand blow across the beach. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!
