Work on Monday, May 18, to clear a spot for a new skateboard park between West Avenue and Asbury Avenue off Fifth Street.
A milling machine removed a neat rectangle of pavement Monday on a city-owned parking lot at Fifth Street and Asbury Avenue to make way for construction of a new skateboard park.
The project started on time, and the contractor anticipates finishing work in three months. The new $732,284 concrete facility will replace a park at Sixth Street and Boardwalk that was dismantled in 2011 due to safety concerns.
