From Porgy and Bess:
“One of these mornings you’re gonna rise up singing
And you’ll spread your wings and you’ll take to the sky
But ’til that morning, there ain’t nothin’ can harm you
With Daddy (Abercrombie) and Mammy (Fitch) standin’ by“
EDDIE COCHRAN with the “Summertime Blues.”

iStar is the newest developer for the A. Park oceanfront 1 1/4 mile strip. Others have come and gone, but iStar seems to be confident in their plan to create an amazing strip of 20 mixed use projects including a 110 room hotel to be finished this summer and a new 34 unit condominium complex.
Vive condo project sold out in one day in 2013 and then repeated the feat for phase two. I love to walk by Vive; its design, colors and layout seem so inviting to me. Grovers need relief sometimes from Victorian architecture.
Asbury Park is going places with professional creative planning and above-board management. What a difference when compared to the wannabe North End project in the Grove.
Undoubtedly those Ocean Grove developers want to hitch their wagon to an iStar and create Asbury Park, Jr. at the OG North End. But they are so proud of their plan that they are hiding under their beds while waiting for the shenanigans to slither through. Don’t hold your breath for the names behind WAVE to be revealed. They seem to be ashamed of their project—it’s been dormant since 2008, and an ugly site remains.

Ocean Grove was hit hard during Sandy losing most of our boardwalk and fishing pier. Bob Bowné photographed when Sandy carried away the Fishing Club and he took the most iconic image of that day. (link below)
These oceanfront Victorians took a beating but they survived as they probably did during many storms since the late 19th century. Ocean Grove was relatively lucky. It would be two years before the Boardwalk was partially rebuilt, and it is still not done. But you can’t hurry love:

Here’s a reminder from 2015 Blogfinger.

Ghost ship off Bradley Beach. Are the Russians coming? Are the Russians coming?

Says Bob Bowné, “This morning this GIANT work ship was “parked” just off the coast of Bradley Beach in the morning mist. It has a 6 or 7 smaller attending vessels that are scooting around and coming in by the beachfront. Looks like Bradley has plenty of sand, so I do not know if it may here for beach replenishment or some other duty.” Anybody know?
Could it be the Russians with a new load of emails for the media?
Or maybe it’s our order for diagonal lines for Main Avenue.
