Greetings from Asbury Park, NJ

With promises of a brighter future for what was one of the best tourist's attractions in the 1950's, also starring in the film "City By The Sea" I decided to make a trip to get some pics of Asbury as it sits today. Hoping one day as my daughters get older, I can show them the before and after pics.

With this thread, I would also like to hear from all you OSO'ers who have lived in NJ and have transplanted elsewhere.

Let's hear it! :)

The pictures will start at the southern end of the boardwalk around the Carousel & Casino and work there way north.
