Seconding that the only flaw was that it was too packed and it was difficult to even move. There were a lot of vendors I wanted to stop and browse at but there were just too many people to wade through. I don't know what the solution is but it's definitely an issue. Maybe only do vendors on one side of the street instead of doubling up and leaving such a narrow walkway?

Why does original source material only matter for one artist and not the other?? I doubt the local artist you are referring to would even care since it's pretty safe to assume he already knows this isn't an original design.

Can anyone claim originality on the "greetings from.." motif? Although iconic I don't think anyone assumed Bruce Springsteen's "Greetings from Asbury Park" album cover was breaking the mold. It's a vintage design that a lot of artists play around with.

Clifton actually makes more sense to me for corporate housing than the heights. What makes this listing so confusing is it's not cheaper than NYC and it's in an undesirable area right next to it - why wouldn't you just get a rental in the city if you're going to spend that much a month?

I agree- what corporate executive that has a private jet would need to save a few bucks staying in the heights?? I feel like it's actually easier to drive out of Manhattan to get to Teterboro via GWB then dick around in JC traffic. I am sure someone will rent it but as corporate housing for an executive? I don't see it- who wouldn't rather just be put up in a hotel that is presumably closer to where all your meetings are? All the bells and whistles is what makes the rental confusing- anyone who can afford this and wants these kinds of accommodations would have no interest in being in the heights. If it wasn't so high end I could see it being corporate housing but like someone said below- this looks like it was made for a reality show.

That's what's perplexing- it's the only halfway decent bagel store in the neighborhood so there's a line but the bagels are totally mediocre. Why has no one taken advantage of the dire need for a good bagel place? I can assure you no one is waiting in line because of quality- it's lack of other options.

The downtown location's bagel quality has really gone down. The texture is different and it's gone from hit or miss to just always bad whenever I get one from there. Why can't downtown get a decent bagel place??

Can we stop feeding the troll who has had an account for like ...a day and it's only been used to get people riled up with half baked conspiracy theories? Anyone who has been around downtown long enough knows Pint and knows this dumbass's perception of the owner is completely baseless. Sounds like someone who works for the garbage company can't let it go that someone actually stood up to them and stopped taking their shit. There's already been two poster's in here with no JCLIST history blindly defending the sanitation department - none of us are that new to the internet that we don't recognize this move.

Agreed Jerseymom. I thought it was very strange to see Candice Osbournes response to all this on the owner of Pints social media- saying that it was in fact being investigated (even though he had received no feedback to his complaint) while this guy is still "working" and demanding booze. I'm pretty sure most of us wouldn't be given a two week window to continue working if we behaved this way at our own places of employment. Why was this guy even given the luxury of being able to continue working when the evidence being shown was so obviously incriminating?? That's concerning to me. Is garbageman now an elected official that needs to be impeached?? Why did this take so long?

You can get bottled Stumptown cold brew at Chelsea Whole Foods. I love Rook- I have tried (and failed) to find a suitable replacement locally. If you are looking for regular cold brew and not necessarily New Orleans style I would suggest just buying quality beans,a good coffee grinder, and looking up the various methods on DIYing it.

This is basically how much a night out will cost you if you're seeing a concert at a major venue. Look at what people pay at sporting events for drinks and tickets. Why is this such a sticker shock? It's not like everyone is accustomed to paying a nickel to see a talkie.

Well maybe they assumed their restaurant was going to be visited by able minded adults who can comprehend that not being seated at vacant tables doesn't mean the hostess personally hates you. When someone uses that as a claim of poor service I immediately stop listening.

I don't disagree but that I would bet money that has ZERO to do with this stupid campaign.

This campaign started what- less than a year ago? No one deserve credit for this- it's a natural progression that would have happened with or without corny advertisements by JC's resident famewhores.

Not new but they only actually started enforcing it and ticketing drivers within the past couple of years.

On the topic of drivers slowing down at intersections- what else are you supposed to do now that it's law that pedestrians have the right of way if there's no traffic light? I slow down at corners without stop signs on local streets because I'm looking out for pedestrians that have the right of way. It's basically up to the driver to spot the pedestrian since technically they are now allowed to wander into the road at any point as long as they are within the crosswalk.
Not disagreeing with this being annoying but that's my guess for why drivers are yielding even when they don't have the stop sign.
