Editor’s note: In 2016 we posted an article about how Ocean Grove’s South End almost became a condo community in the 1980’s. But the developers were successfully beaten back thanks to a coordinated community backlash, and that’s why we now have the open area along Fletcher Lake, including the park-like setting near the boardwalk. That’s why we now have open air, light and space at the OG South End.
And that is what we should be getting at the North End in 2020. Read about it. Here is a link. —-PG. Blogfinger.net
