With Fight Club failing as a tourist attraction, Peekskill looks to its natural resources in order to draw in tourist to this small Hudson River City.
Looking over the Hudson River Peekskill's Mayor Mary Foster points towards Travis Bay where reportedly an unidentified real estate developer has seen a monster very reminiscent of the legendary Loch Ness Monster. 'He said it was right there. ' Stated an exhuberant Foster.
'I couldn't believe what I heard,' said an astonished Foster, 'I immidiately sent the Police Marine Patrol to investigate. They didn't see anything, but it could be moving anywhere between here and Cortlandt.'
"We think we'll be able to create a lot of new jobs related to all the monster-viewing activity -- to say nothing of t-shirt sales" said a relieved City Councilman Joe Schuder. Shuder also pointed out that a new park is slated for the area and that this sighting could really make this park a destination.
"This is the kind of attraction that just sells itself," Mayor Foster said. "Which is great, because that whole boutiques-in-the-downtown concept wasn't really coming together."
Patty Villanova, owner of Side Effects New York, sees a great opportunity in having a sea monster in town. "I've been asked to develop a marketing plan for our newest resident,' said Villanova of the exciting development. Ms. Villanova added, 'we have nothing like this in Putnam.'
Ms. Villanova will be setting aside a ballot box in her shop to give the monster a name. "I prefer 'Red' because its the Peekskill High School colors and naming it the Red Devil might scare children."
More skeptical politicians like George Oros doubt the existance of a monster at all. 'I'm launching an investigation into this,' said Oros, 'I think it may just be sewage secretly dumped by Yorktown'. Yorktown officials deny these charges and stated that their sewage diversion plan is has been dead for sometime.
Former Mayor John Testa also expressed strong support for the new tourism plan. "Eat our dust, Beacon."
