I've actually parked in the parking garage of said structure while attending Jets games this season.

I guess that eventually they can turn it into a parking lot, kind of what it looks like anyway.

I've always wanted to try some sort of summer skiing.
Has anyone tried grass skiing around here?

Dry skiing, yes. Grass skiing, with roller skis though, no.

Name has been changed to American Dream, and you are correct, just a dream.

Sad that it could not be completed before the Superbowl that will be played next door. Way to go NJ. Although NY is no better with its rusting relics from the worlds fair in Flushing

On the flip side, what good is being opened during Superbowl when I imagine you'll have tons of traffic. I mean overall this sounds nice, but take a look at traffic issues, could be a nightmare.

If it was open today I would head down there just to be refrigerated.

in case you haven't noticed, it all ready is a nightmare on your average game night. The biggest problem I see is all those people leaving at once. Perhaps if people had someplace to go(skiing/shopping, did somebody say indoor waterpark?) this would cut down on that mass exodus.

I just finished watching a Giants game, great game, or crap game, don't matter. Next thing I'll be dying to do is go shopping, indoor skiing, play video games, maybe hit a restaurant. Yeah, I'm sorry, but I don't think so.

when you have 70k+ leaving anywhere its going to be a disaster. that whole project is a disaster.

Typical of New Jersey. Blow it up. On a side note: It can't snow hard enough for the Super Bowl this year. Anyone else want to see a full fledged blizzard for the game?

If they ever get this thing open are they going to charge to park? I would imagine that Giant/Jet/(concert) fans might want to avoid paying the $30 they charge to park on game days. Imagine paying $30 to get into the place just for shopping or grabbing a meal?

Now you're talking! Football as it should be played.

True, but more likely is a rain event with temps in the high 30s or low 40s. Nothing like sitting for hours in a cold rain through mega commercial breaks and a 45 minute halftime. Everybody will be inside while the game is played in front of vast sections of empty seats.

Good point. In the end, we get the Superbowl in NJ. If weather is crap,they go back to playing stictly indoors, but we had Superbowl.
