I was so saddened to hear this! We adopted our two beautiful cats from them. They are so wonderful. So very sad!!

Passed bythe other day.

Looks like the West Side and McGinley Square are under attack now.

Infrastructure issues? Fuggedaboudit. Get a scooter.

Campaign literature showed up in my mailbox on Saturday.

This guy is the Herpes of the political world. No matter how much you want him gone he keeps coming back.

Could someone please recommend an architect that is local in Jersey City?

Thank you!

Stick a fork in him.
He's cooked.

He was saved by a hung jury the last time the Senator got indicted.

Let's see how much attention mainstream media gives to this.
But Donald Trump?
Quite another treatment altogether.
Media bias ?

Do you think this will ever get to the Heights area? It works great Downtown!

Hello downtown residents!

I am curious to know your experiences with the active once a week street cleaning pilot that started in January.

Is the available weekly parking experience markedly different?
Has the street cleanliness noticeably changed?


Below is a link to the actual survey that the city opened, just in case you haven't seen it and provided them your thoughts:

JC List started approximately 20 years ago, before Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Nextdoor were even in a formative phase. The Webmaster of JCList was light years ahead of the curve. I believe the founder of JCList is named Dan. I am not sure if Dan still runs this sight or whether someone else took over. But Dan did a a tremendous job in leveraging social media to bring the JC community together. I'm not sure if his efforts and impact have ever been recognized or full appreciated. But his impact is absolutely unique and indelible. So if you're still out there Dan I just wanted to say what a great job you did and how advanced you were. Thank you for your efforts.

Thanks for all your recommendations. I am stuck in New Jersey due to work, and I need a dentist ASAP. Well, I'll see who can have me on a short call.

Can someone refer a good private investigator?


Thank you!

Robert Byrne, longtime Jersey City city clerk, dies at age of 63

Robert Byrne, who presided over Jersey City City Hall meetings as city clerk for parts of five different decades, died Friday at the age of 63.

“Anyone who dealt with Jersey City over the last 30 years would have encountered Robert Byrne, and every single one of them would have left with a positive and memorable experience,” Jersey City Mayor Steve Fulop said. “For me, I have countless examples as he embraced me when I was an outside councilman first elected and taught me about government. He swore me in at midnight when I was first elected mayor of Jersey City.

Governor..err..I mean..Mayor Fulop Good Morning America 3 interview (5 minutes)

https://youtu.be/rVZ9TPqLO80

There are a number of attorneys that handle appeals and are only paid if you win the appeal. Might be worth talking to one. The advice I got was that the 1st level of appeal (county) normally doesn't go well.

I went through the tax appeal stage at the county level more than fifteen years ago. I had a (are) victory (my assessment was lowered) but spent a lot of time gathering comps to back up my argument. It helped that I had a tenant who was a realtor who had access to the MLS system that got me all the comps I needed.

Alas, I too bemoan the demise of this site. In addition to the reasons stated above, the platform is a little clunky. I can't seem to log on on my phone or home PC. And you can't post photos etc.

It's such a shame. The really unexpected bravery of allowing free speech should have made this site take off.

Sounds like a plausible explanation.
I wonder if the bad actors have drited over to reddit?
It's too bad because there were some pretty intelligent posters over the years.
I miss some of the knowledge and information they'd posted.

It turned into Breitbart so the last of the decent people on here left. I check this page rarely anymore. The Trumpees can talk amongst themselves.

Quote:

The number of users makes for wider appeal. As the users dropped off here, and the only ones left were bona fide nuts or asses who want to insult insult people (sometimes to a disgusting extent) it became irrelevant.
Reddit does have its nuts, but they are far fewer and the r/jerseycity moderator seems to do a fine job without impeding freedom of speech.

It's a shame but many posters felt the moderator was too moderate. Not left slanting enough

Hmmmm.
So what is the appeal of reddit?
