Wonder Bar, Asbury Park, New Jersey USA, 2009
Asbury Park is a forgotten town. Once a popular summer destination, the Jewel of The Jersey Shore became a virtual ghost town after people deserted it through the hard times. Old favorites like the grease friendly Wonder Bar and Ocean Avenue’s Stone Pony remain, but the past couple of years Asbury Park went through a sort of Renaissance. Just a few years ago you could walk along the beach in solitude. Now the families, the day trippers, and the trendy cafes are creeping back to town.
