08:10 PM - Asbury demolition set for April 29
They're finally going to be destroying C-8, the giant shell of a building that has been the biggest eyesore on the Asbury Park waterfront for years. From the Asbury Park Press:
"The implosion of C-8, the abandoned steel skeleton high-rise that became the symbol of the failed redevelopment of the 1990s, is scheduled for 7 a.m. April 29, city officials said Wednesday."
Thanks to Tom Sullivan for pointing this out - and an interesting addition to his story in which a friend asked "When was the war..." in regards to the destruction in Asbury Park: While we were shooting my first student film on the boardwalk in AP, a man came up to us and said "Are you making a film about destruction? Because this is where they dropped the bomb." Maybe Tom's friend was right.
Oh and the title of that film ended up being "A Film About Destruction."
