This is seaside heights that used to be an amusement pier... with all sorts of rides. It USED to have a huge boardwalk... This is crazy. I saw a pic online of Atlantic city.. all u see is wooden pillars where the boardwalk used to be.. and brick foundations.. without buildings---only the foundation is left. When i find that pic i will post it.

— Number of states seeing intense effects of the storm: At least 17
— Deaths: At least 55
— Damage: Estimated property losses at $20 billion, ranking the storm among the most expensive U.S. disasters
— Top wind gust on land in the U.S.: 140 mph, at Mount Washington, N.H.
— Power outages at peak: More than 8.5 million
— Canceled airline flights: More than 18,100

Re: Pics of Sandy damage
my power, and internet keeps coming and going... i had water yesterday, but today i did not--guess they turned it off to fix something.
The Trenton USPS processing center is still without power. That is just insane, because we are doing our mail and theirs-- there is no room to walk in our building because of it.

Actually, I don't think the AC boardwalk was hit too hard. I think the one section that was destroyed was scheduled for demolition anyway. The one at Seaside Heights is gone.

Rockaway Beach Boardwalk and this is only some of it, the boardwalk goes on for miles:
