Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers University, who stated that "The market was virtually flat..It suggests that the market is far from rebounding, and it may signal that there is weakness ahead." Plans were announced in 2006 for a major new hotel and condominium development on property which has been vacant since the 1970s, when the old "North End Hotel" – once Ocean Grove's largest – was damaged by fire and subsequently demolished in 1980. .
