It's still an ugly painting, but the city's handling of it is even uglier.

Is the "Brooke" that wanted him to change the painting to appease a developer the same "Brooke" that gave the Bostwick Ave rant? It's surprising that she's still in our city government. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvTksxjXkzQ

Check before, but beware that their max time listed is 31 minutes even though the actual time can be 90 mins just for security. Never fly out in the late afternoon if you can avoid it. Early mornings are the best.
http://tsastatus.net/search.php?q=EWR Put in EWR http://apps.tsa.dhs.gov/mytsa/wait_times_home.aspx their wait times seem to max out at 31 minutes even if it is 90 If you are flying united out of terminal C and there are 90 minute lines, go through security at terminal A or B and take the transfer shuttle bus back to C.

Fulop dropped the ball on this one.
Funny he sends out a message calling for Christie to resign, but not a peep on his boy Chico. Fulop is full of it.

I'm not saying there's anything you can or should do about it. I'm just saying people have very justified reasons to worry.
This is the opposite of having gays and artists gentrify your neighborhood.

Come in, order, sit, consume and leave. Don't milk that one coffee for 2 hours of table space. It's rude to the coffee shop, even if they don't have the guts to tell you directly.

I walked in there the other day, thinking of getting a bite to eat and a coffee, saw the sea of losers on laptops, and turned around and left. Very unappealing to sit in someone's claimed office space to enjoy a snack and drink.
Get a room!

Fulop is probably breaking the law with his shady tactics. I'm betting he gets arrested by the FBI before he becomes governor.
The tax man is coming for you, Fulop!

I'm pretty sure consensus is that they're selling fast food style burgers, very slowly, with meat that's more expensive than it's worth and charging more than everyone else selling this style of burger. If they don't drop their prices a few bucks, they'll be gone by next winter when the Toricos spill over dies off.

It's a 66? of ingredients burger that would normally sell for $1.99 at any other fast food restaurant. It's no Big Mac or Whopper. It's a little bigger than the 72? White Castle and about the same size as the $1 McDonalds hamburger, but with more toppings, "fancy" beef and special sauce, which puts it squarely in the $1.99 retail price range.
They're aspiring to be a Shake Shack in size and quality, but Shake Shack costs $5.66 (tax included) vs $7.38 at this knock-off. Overpriced. Won't last.

Downtown Jersey City is a former swamp and floodplain.
There is a long history of buildings falling over, collapsing and killing people. Save yourself a fortune, headaches, and possibly your life and buy something structurally sound.
