RE: (rshsdepot) Nort Pemberton Railroad Station Alert



All the original foundations of the old railroad buildings are there and we
want to reconstruct the buildings.  If the WaWa wins they will all end up in
a landfill.  We got a Green Acres Grant and some others and were ready to go
ahead with the project when all of a sudden the Township Council made a deal
with WaWa and the Council told us that the owner had already made an
agreement with WaWa after we were told we had it.  All the members of the
Council are in Real Estate.  Does that tell you anything?

I think of all the travesties in depot demolitions this last few months,
this threat from a Super Wa Wa has to be the most
ignominious..

Super Wa Wa? Give me a break...will there be a Chucky Cheese near it?

Super Wa Wa, now there is a cultural historical legacy to be proud of
