Failed and Forgotten ? - Asbury Park, NJ

"only a few decades ago, every New Jersey kid, young and old, would associate Asbury Park with beaches and entertainment.

Long torn apart by class and race conflicts, and further destroyed by corruption and greed.. the last few years have seen Asbury become one of those alleged cities making a comeback.

But if that comeback is occurring is still a matter of debate. With half-completed projects, investors that pull back their money, abandoned buildings dotting the landscape, and cookie-cutter townhouses in the making; in Asbury Park.. there ain't no garuntee of a comeback."
