Summer 2006 is over
but the weather this week and next few days is great.
The boardwalk this year saw more and more people coming down. The beaches remain clean and still plenty of room. Construction of Wesley Grove and North Beach Condos moved along all summer - more and more signs of hope.
This is my favorite time of the year. Typlically great weather and the whole beach is mine.
While the boardwalk quiets down some, the Amusement Factory at First as well as the Tide Cafe will remain open. Still a reason to walk the boards.
Cookman Avenue continues to become "cooler". A couple more places to eat and drink, the Steinbach renovations continue, slowly, but at least this historic structure hasn't burned down or hit by a wrecking ball.
Stay tuned to asburyboardwalk or this blog .
Asbury Park. One interesting place.

Bruce Springsteen's statement on his marriage...
We always receive mail with questions to asburyboardwalk.com about the legend that we really can't answer. So to that, Springsteen's repsonse:
BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN ADDRESSES RUMORS ABOUT THE BREAKUP OF HIS MARRIAGE
In a rare comment about his personal life, Bruce Springsteen posted a statement to his official Web site Monday (August 28,2006), in which he replied to the rumor, printed last week on Page Six in The New York Post, that he was splitting from wife and bandmate Patti Scialfa, after having taken up with a 9/11 widow.
Springsteen called the rumors “unfounded and ugly” and said that “our commitment to one another remains as strong as the day we were married.”
Springsteen and Scialfa were spotted shopping in Red Bank, New Jersey, this weekend and those who saw them reported that the couple looked happy and at ease. One shopper reported that Scialfa said that friends of the couple were having a harder time dealing with the rumors than they were.
The full text of the statement follows:
“I hesitate to use this website for anything personal believing it should remain a place where fans of my music can come free of the distractions that occasionally arise with the rest of my job. However, due to the unfounded and ugly rumors that have appeared in the papers over the last few days, I felt they shouldn’t pass without comment. Patti and I have been together for 18 years- the best 18 years of my life. We have built a beautiful family we love and want to protect and our commitment to one another remains as strong as the day we were married.”
That is well said. So ladies and gentleman, remember who got you as far as you have come, and cherish it.

Wesley Grove
Everyone has a name for the townhomes known as Wesley Grove. This project is being built by the Kushner Companies in several phases along Cookman Avenue and Wesley Lake with view of Ocean Grove.
While we like the overall concept, we still wish the overall plan drew more views to Wesley Lake and Ocean Grove then Cookman Ave.
It's a great opportunity for folks who want to be close to the Ocean, Ocean Grove and the proposed Asbury PArk Entertainment disctrict. With all the new shops and eateries in the Cookman Avenue district, it may make for an interesting summer or year-round residence.
The sales center is located in Press Plaza and is open at various times.

North Beach Asbury
Located on the north end of the boardwalk and Ocean Avenue, The homes of North Beach consist of condos named - The Barcelona (48 units all reported under contract), The Seville and The Montery. Prices range from $450,000 to over $1,000,000.
These buildings are bing constructed on what was once the very large Monte Carlo pool and Montery Hotel and is north of Convention Hall and the Berkley Cateret Hotel.
While many old timers may not like that these buildings are taking up the entire block, it will begin to bring life to the north end and the construction will eventually block the view of the sewer treatment plant as well as eliminate some of the odors generated by the plant.
