We should acknowledge, I suppose, that the current economic constraints affecting the development and construction industry should be given some credit for this terrible blight on the beauty of Nelson Bay being stymied, for now at least. There are those among us who may even say that there was a higher authority at work, but I give a great deal of credit to the awareness created by the dedication of the many resident action groups who have managed to hold this and other such dubious projects at bay, not the least being the TRRA. (By the way, does anybody want to buy a crane?)
