If you look at the fishing piers of North Carolina and Florida, you’ll find a model as to how a pier can provide access, business opportunity, and tourist revenue.

Here in New England, we leave an abanded bridge open with no management, let it get trashed, and then hold it up as model for why a fishing pier won’t work. It’s another example of why we have a national reputation of being opposed to everything.

Did that just happen on it’s own, or was it part of larger plan orchestrated by those who got nervous once they heard that there was a possibility that one day they might have to share what has essentially been private for as long as most people can remember? I mean really, they could have stopped that whole scene from going down with very little effort.
