The stigma of Asbury Park being dangerous continues. You mean like yesterdays shootings? And you are so right about the stigma. Since I went to OMR the other day, and raved about it to my out of town friends, all I heard was; I'm scared to go to AP Weren't you afraid of parking your car there

My wife, daughter, and I dined there (OMR's)last nite after visiting the Arcade and Under The Sun. We had a window seat overlooking the sidewalk. There was very little foot traffic. Hopefully, in the not too distant future, the streets will be alive with passers-by. The service was excellent.

Believe me, i've done the same kind of thing. Still and all, people are scared of the city. It's hard to get rid of a 30 year old bad reputation when it comes to crime. You can build nice restaraunts, stores, and condos...but people won't come unless they feel safe, and that's the bottom line.

I guess it's a matter of taste. I hate it with a passion. I gave it a chance, but I still think it's horrible. And your comment about it being a destination illustrates a point close to my heart. In my opinion, living in a culture where a horrible piece of architecture becomes a destination
