Some GREAT shots if short- if I knew then what I know NOW, I would've spent a lot more time in the Palace- an amusement jewel from another world and time. JCJoe is right- a tradegy on a grand scale, would've been priceless if saved for AP's resurrection- could you IMAGINE the tourist bucks and nostalgia factor this place could've brought in?? This was like losing Palisades Park- it just hurts the hearts of SO MANY. Couldn't make another if you tried, but I wish some would ANYway!
@jerseycityjoe I agree! Everybody dropped the ball on this one -right down to the historical society itself that TRASHED 125 pieces of memorabilia that they salvaged from the Palace! Unreal the money in this state that goes to ridiculous things; and yet they destroyed this historical building that could have been part of the resurrection of A.P. Was just there yesterday and the boardwalk looks great with small shops, artists, food, etc! Grassroots efforts to reclaim Asbury!

This was righ before the downfall of Asbury, Shame on the city and state goverments for allowing gangs and ghetto trash to take our jewel away
