Move over London Eye. I saw an article in our paper this week and you can read about the subject here and here. It seems New Jersey is getting a humondo ferris wheel of it's own. Along with an indoor ski slope, martini bar, skydiving simulation, etc.
I find myself asking, "Who is going to have the money for all of this?" "Don't we have people worrying about having secure jobs?" "Aren't the food banks dwindling?" Call me crazy but WOW. I'm well, without any further words.

Casinos? Even in times of recession they do well. But the thing is destined for Rutherford, not Atlantic City. You got me...
I drove through New Jersey on Tuesday. And on Thursday. And all I can say is...it's NEW JERSEY!
Move over? Are you kidding? The only mall we are near over here has an indoor ski slope, bowling alley, and simulated sky diving.....oh, and rock walls.
But seriously, I too wonder how the New Jersey thing will fare. I'm sure the developers had it in the works before the bottom fell out.
I guess mostly I just found the timing interesting. I was only in London for a short time (blinked and it was over I think). It just seems like a serious expense--even though one of the articles is commenting positively in the number of jobs it will bring. I really do hope that part of it is true.
