The liability factor should be the biggest reason not to have a dog there. I have a big dog, totally trust worthy. Your dog may be the same but under a noisy condition, with lots of strange people running around you cannot tell. And then there is the my dog doesn't like your dog for some dumb reason factor.

Though can't be 100% certain if school. I've been meaning to stop & ask.

there are some really nice brownstones a couple blocks toward Communipaw as well as a lot of Deco apt buildings and Victorian homes. Sadly, most of the buildings do appear to be Sect 8 dumps at this point. No idea what it takes to turn around an area like this...

I am not sure where to put this but had to share this link...from Huffpost about Yelp reviews. The first one is from a resident of JC. Kind of sad in a funny way. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12 ... 4348.html?utm_hp_ref=food

I'm wondering about the lot around the second entrance to the Grove Street station. Whatever eventually gets built, I hope there is a Whole Foods or similar market on the ground floor.

I often hear grumblings and complaints of jc on this board...I admit I sometimes join in. Here is finally a positive comment. I am sure if you have walked Chris Columbus Drive between Barrow and Grove in the past two months you may have noticed endless garbage not being cleared. a major street with such disgust is not acceptable or attractive to people visiting jc. I contemplated putting a community clean up on the board or just doing it myself. Saturday night I saw a jc incinerator truck, leaned in and told the salt truck employee about my CC Drie issue. He gave me a direct number, extension and name of who to speak to and said to call immediately and speak to Frank, ext 646. After a 5 min chat with Frank i was thanked for the call and told the trash bags would be removed the following day. To my surprise on Monday no more garbage bags on CC Drive. Next step call again and ask if they can clear the debree from the bags. Thank you Frank, I have learned an important lesson about action and our community.

Aren't some of the buildings on Fairmont now condo? I would think the only thing to stop section 8 there is for more businesses to open up and people to call out to city hall o the slum lords.

![]() I was delighted to find my favorite coffee/sandwich shop is open early and ready for business on the first day of 2013!!! STEAM CAFE caught my attention with its "outstanding" coffee and now offers a wide variety of uniquely crafted savory sandwiches for every pallet, served on world renowned BALTIZAR breads. Hurray, for quality and comfort right around the corner. Breakfast or lunch, STEAM does it RIGHT!!!

Building only suffered damages to elevators. All 4 elevators were out for 5 days or so. I think they slowly rolled out the elevators as they fixed them. No other damages that I know.

Some municipalities have installed fixtures that light the street but minimize the amount of light that escapes up toward dwellings and the sky. I would love to see JC install these when they next upgrade fixtures." Here, here. Let's do things better in Jersey City. There has to be a way for people and drivers to be safe but also for ways to cut light pollution and energy consumption. Happy New Years y'all!

If you're not concerned about washing your dirty drawers after your fellow laundrmates have used the same machine to wash theirs in cold water, you really shouldn't be that concerned about dogs.
To use an expression I learned when I moved to JC, Laundromats make me skeeve. You might want to spray the washer, dryer and folding table with Lysol; probably good for whatever might ail you, blood or feces - borne pathogens and doggie related issues.

I had heard that Zephyr Lofts and 700 Grove share the same garage and that the flooding caused the platforms in the garage which is under the 2 buildings to rise. Not sure if there was any structural damage.

Does anyone live here? Was this building flooded since it is right up against the Hudson? At least the lobby? I know that 700 Grove's parking garage was flooded out. Thanks for any intel.

I can sympathize. I was also read the riot act when attempting to return a purchase I made with the original receipt to boot! I think it is a sad commentary on the state of this country's future: we don't "produce" anything (besides bullshit "financial products" and the like to export to other unsuspecting nations), so "service-oriented" jobs comprise the majority of all employment, yet the ungrateful CSRs who staff these positions behave like entitled children behind their respective store counters or telephone lines. They need to get over themselves, just do their job, and stop giving hell to their customers. I would never go back to that particular Brookstone store. The disrespectful high schooler they hired was a poor investment.

And when they do take their business elsewhere the owner of the place will realize his short coming in more ways than one. Al least the service dog is well behaved and knows protocol.

Not sure I see the problem. Customers can take their business elsewhere if they don't like the presence of dogs. Also, service dogs are allowed pretty much everywhere. Don't be shocked if you see one in your favorite restaurant.

Got a gift from here and I tried to return it. They treated me like a thief. Have to go back a third time. I've never experienced retail like this. I will never purchase anything from there again in my life.

While it is technically not the maintenance worker's primary job function to play beat cop, the fact that security was this lax really makes you wonder what the hell people are paying ridiculous maintenance fees for. You would never see this shit happen in one of the newer buildings in Battery Park City. Then again, those folks easily fork out over a grand in maintenance alone, so I guess you get what you pay for...

Completely agree - it's nice to enjoy a good bottle of wine in a glass that permits the wine to breathe. A tiny french water glass is a bummer.
