That's what Fireman's been trying to do for decades, but thus far the city and the state have stopped him. State Senator Brian Stack introduced a bill that would open up the park to private development, and squashed a bill that would protect Caven Point from developers. Then, after some backlash, introduced a bill to protect Caven Point.

If that passes, then our public land (and vital habitat to several threatened bird and fish species) is safe. Except the governor is pals with Fireman. So it's going to come down to who Phil Murphy values more — each and every one of his constituents put together, or one out-of-state bilionaire.
