Bulldozers brought down a long-crumbling Long Island eyesore on Wednesday. As GusoffTV reports, the building's destruction is being hailed as a major milestone in the revitalization of the struggling community of Mastic Beach.
-- Bulldozers brought down a long-crumbling Long Island eyesore on Wednesday, a shuttered waterfront restaurant that was flooded during Superstorm Sandy.
"It has been my vision for 55 years of my life growing up here that we would be able to enjoy the waterfront," said Robert Miller, vice president of the Mastic Beach Homeowners Association."We've had hurricanes, Gloria in '85, we had the Superstorm Sandy, and it kind of depleted the area and depleted the people because we lost so many homes during those storms.
"We look for this to be an amenity not only for our local residents, but to bring visitors here from out of town, to really put us on the map in a positive way," Suffolk County Legislator Jim Mazzarella said.
