Asbury Park has one real functional "Theater" left, the Paramount. 
And that is deteriorating due to neglect everyday since Asbury 
Partners only engages in painting and landscaping of any building 
they own.

The Paramount is one of the few remaining Movie Palace type theaters 
in the country. Designed for theater and film. One of earliest with 
air conditioning and amplified sound designed in, along with organ 
chambers for silent films. State of the art in 1930, with the best 
acoustics of any such place around here.

Breaks my heart to see it being damaged due to neglect and improper 
treatment by Asbury Partners who have no background in historic 
preservation.
