Originally there were going to be three sail like towers built here...project was proposed around 2003 but nothing ever came of it. This WON'T be happening as a casino, one or two towered.... the vote for expanded casino gambling is looking to be a negative statewide... and certainly a no vote in Jersey City. I thought the project was intriguing at first... but it hasn't caught the imagination of most and though I think this area would be perfect for development(outside of Liberty State Park...I oppose commercial development within the park)either Fireman comes in with something not involving gambling or some other developer get a crack at it. The architectural proposal for the casino turned out to look tacky and offputting as well... certainly didn't help we were not getting a jewel but a crass Las Vegas-ized atrocity.

And the last thing I'd do is a gated project that won't even be part of the community.... please, Mr. Fireman, go back to the drawing board and eliminate the casino part. It ain't going through in November.
