Great satire is often almost undetectable.

I think it's probably things like a tower hotel with a revolving rotunda, a singles club, zeppelin docking and (because you can never have too many) a waterslide in every room. Seems as if the planners never visited Northport (or looked at what the community can support). They suggest that:

Sit-down family dining will return to Northport's "main drag" with two new breakfast spots. The Most Important Meal of the Day will serve delicious omelets, cereal, and toast, while Rise and Dine will dish up french toast, breakfast meats, and fresh-squeezed juice.

Look out Barb's - you're in for a whole lot of competition!

Why such negative comments on this webpage - being a joke
Seems legitimate enough to me

I hope that site was created as a joke, and those ideas weren't developed by real consultants. The "Transportation" and "Accomodations" pages were the most amusing.

There's nothing like a vacation destination catering to the needs of young, single professionals, who happen to want a skyscraper hotel with waterslides and to arrive by blimp.

Speaking of Northport, I stumbled upon this bizarre site: http://www.whatnorthportneeds.com. I really don't know what to make of it. (As I write this, I see how old this post is, but it still seems apropo, so I'll go ahead and post the comment.)
