After all, it took 15 years to build that entertainment complex American Dream in the Meadowlands in New Jersey, because it was slowed down by the recession.Also, Poconos Manor burnt down recently and that was supposed to be part of the Poconos Springs complex, so that complicates things and slows it down as well.Personally I prefer investing in the Southern US (way higher year-round occupancy rates & way more money to be made) but if you’re really intent on buying a property in the northeast, remember that the 30 million people in the nyc area tend to vacation more in the catskills, hudson valley, berkshires, adirondacks & green mtns (vermont) more than the poconos.
