At the same meeting when Bruno made that comment we were told that the 
aluminum light poles and lights are there for safety. It seems that the 
decorative lights that go on the western side of the boardwalk do not 
illuminate the area well enough.
So instead of getting a decorative light that can do the job, they have 
decided that the decorative lights will make it look nice and the aluminum 
lights will provide the light.
Only in Asbury could you here something like.

".lights selected are a disappointment.  .the city website .designs

When I congratulated Fish Bag on managing to get exact reproductions
of the Parkway's lights, Jim Bruno informed me that those are the very
same lights we've had for 30 years, enough said.  I agree these
lights, no matter how true to recent history, are hideous, but then
what can you expect from Larry (by the way, be careful what you wish
for, Larry has no eye for color, he starts paint those suckers we'll
wish it was a toll road)?  It's his 1st development.

As for the city's web site, that's pre-sale marketing, you're allowed
to lie your ass off in those things; the intent is to just whet your
appetite, hell I've seen Fishman graphics with a fully restored Casino
and we know that's never gonna happen.

in now?
