Daily News | The wisdom of the Jersey Shore awning guy
Back in the day, says Bernie Soto Jr., 69, the family awning business started by his late father was doing 700 houses every season. Houses had porches. People talked to their neighbors. There was a little space between houses. Air flowed. Shade mattered.
When they’re rebuilding their houses, they’re not putting porches on them. They are more on the inside of the house rather than outside. People just aren’t getting awnings.It’s a different kind of look. In Ocean City, everything’s straightup. There’s no aesthetic look to it. Nothing looks nice like the old houses. They have front lawns, setbacks from the curb. They have room around each house, around 20 feet.
