The 8th Ave beach is the surfing beach. I would be very upset if
that were made private. As much as it bothers me that it gets
crowded now, I like having the option of surfing within walking

I think we can look foward to the boardwalk having a lot of high end

these high end condos, some million dollar, are going to want these high end
