Now, according to pressofatlanticcity, there has been no modular homes produced nor any type of rehab of the building, and city and state officials have discussed dissolving the port authority. Thomas Neff, the former chairman of the state Local Finance Board, said of the Port Authority, “With all due respect, it is a port authority and there isn’t a single boat anywhere — or a slip, for that matter. They don’t have staff, and they don’t do anything.”
Matthew Stephens, a 20-year resident of the area who lives 50 feet from the planned redevelopment, said he never heard of the agency or the plans to construct modular homes in the building. ##
