It would have been great for my weekend visit if there were lockers someplace. Like in the bus and train stations of nyc. Great idea as a start if showers and changing rooms are not in the plans right now. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, oakdorf [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- In

I remember that there was a sign right when you walk into the conventon center, one of those a-frame things that sit on the ground. My experience was not good related to bathrooms, I went in one of those portable toilets on the boardwalk before finding the other one. Very tacky and low class

Lockers would be great for day trippers to use who come in by train. I think it would also help to increase the numbers of tourists per day. No need for parking spaces for these folks either. I really think when Asbury Park starts to build more hotels in the future that they ought to

It's a good idea to have bathrooms in the Casino, and i suspect that will happen.  Just like their are public bathrooms on the souther side of CH open to the public now.  Right before the beach bar.  I wonder if visitors wondering around even know their there yet?  They should have a sign
