Retreat would indicate going someplace away from where you live. Same 
with Nicholson (or does driving across the tracks count 
as retreating?)

Also, apparently no one ever heard of Asbury Park until 1975, when 
Springsteen put it on the map. (Poor AP, languishing in obscurity for 
100 years. ;) Dare I mention the album actually came out in '73?)

The character and history of Asbury Park will be preserved.. it says

(I AM stoked to see that jetty though. That must be one amazing set of 
rocks!)

Something interesting on those plans in the brochure... check out the 
Fifth Avenue Pavilion.  Look at the second floor plan that is 
showing Tim McLoone's Supper Club... its not actually the 2nd floor 
they are showing, its the basement.  The reason behind this is 
absolutely because they do not want to show the 2nd floor of the 
pavilion because, well, it contains the bandshell.  This means one of 
two things. 1) The bandshell has not been designed. 2) The area is 
being designed as something else that they do not want us to see 
right now.  Its just something to think about, and I know there are 
some here who will think that is interesting.

Easy to say... but why would they go through trouble to disguise a 
basement plan and cover it up as the second floor?  Its would have 
been alot easier to just use the real second floor plan, even if the 
bandshell isnt designed yet... there is definately a second floor 
plan drawn up, and it would either say in the bandshell area: 
Designed by Others, or To Remain As Is... something along those 
lines. Unless they have something to hide, there really should be no 
reason why they would have to disguise a plan like that.

Have you all lost your ability to read prints? That is indeed the 
2nd floor being shown. That is the only usable space currently, the 
center of the Pavilion is just a roof (the seating area) and the 
south end of 2nd floor (the stage and band rooms) is not currently 
shown since its not for lease yet

Where do you get the idea its the basement ???

It does appear that its the second floor... but zoom in to 400%. Then 
take a look and read below the circular area.  It clearly reads 
basement plan.  And if you look carefully, it is because the second 
floor of the hojo's is not drawn in... its just a circular outline.  
The architects did a patchwork job of making this appear as the real 
2nd floor plan, when in actuality, its not.

Head on over to North Beach and look at the concept plans that THEY have on 
display 
form SPG architects (think). These earlier plans show a very cool bandshell 
(i;m looking  
for the pdf) - nice brick that appears to match CH (least in color) and other 
buildings all 
probably you might them to look. Probably, then again, probably not

maybe tomorrow I'll post some of the concept plans I saved when they were 
published. I 
think maybe Maureen may have some as well. Interesting to look like. Even the 
fancy ones 
of the Esperanza. And - no concept plans ever appeared alike - the ESP, Palace 
Hotel/entertaiment area, Wesley Grove vs actual.

Depended who the engineers and architects were used and by what subdeveloper etc

There's probably hundreds of concept plan of the BW  and Cookman Ave. I;ve been 
trying 
to hunt down some older ones. Think about it - from Michael Jackson and Jacque 
Cousteau, Jai-Lai, Minor league baseball, Hotels, apartments towers, Hov, no 
bandshell, 
various doodles of the interior of CH, Bathhouse designsetc etc.

I have a plan (angle) if I was to get all these on one place - a real great art 
show. Because 
it really is art.

AP is probably one of the most conceptualized places in the world - next to 
Disney World.

 Doesn't the 400,000 sf in the plan include the entirety of CH and 
 Casino? What about the power plant? And perhaps the new hotel

I was hoping someone would pick up on that. Yes the 400,000 included 
the Paramont Theater (not a retail space), Convention Hall (not a 
retail space), Heating Plant (minimal retail space), Casino Arena (they 
claim no intention of turning it into a Mall)...

Padding the  numbers from the begining. As I recall all the existing 
uses, retail/commercial/ENTERTAINMENT, were lumped together and came in 
at around 300,000 sqft. The newly created retail was to be around 
100,000 sqft.

Look at what's happening along the NEW Cookman Ave from Grand to Ocean. 
One small corner store.
