What a freakin joke. They've been talking about redeveloping lower Broadway for about 15 years.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LONG BRANCH - The pieces are coming together for Kushner Cos.' new redevelopment concept to move forward on lower Broadway, which has been a barren streetscape going on seven years now.
The city, which signed an agreement with Kushner last September for a mixed-use plan of 299 apartments and 22,000 square feet of retail, commercial and restaurant space, introduced the accompanying redevelopment plan at last Wednesday's City Council meeting.
Without the plan, which sets the design standards such as building heights, sidewalk widths and utility placement, the project can't move forward. The site sits on two blocks on the historic thoroughfare between Second Avenue and Liberty Street. It's also just a minute's walk to the beach and Pier Village, one of the city's marquee beachfront destinations, also owned by Kushner.
Do these places excite anyone anymore? Luxury apartments with $3-4k monthly rents for single millenials and their cats, a parking garage, bouge liquor store, pizza restaurant, maybe another strip mall chain restaurant/craft brew, and probably a verizon wireless shop
I dont know what the answer is for whats better in the town, that draws tourists but these have popped up in every town now.

Well, people live there, too. Train to the city plus an ocean is a draw for those who can pay the prices.
It sounded like a good plan,,, about 5 years ago the old buildings were leveled and removed,,, but from what I heard someone took the money and ran seriously,,, back then anyway,,, this has been proposed probably 25 years or longer, probably inevitable
