Except for the Real Deal article on Brooklyn, you did not provide any facts or backup....just more conjecture.
We can agree to disagree, but people reading this thread should realize that you are making bold claims with nearly no backup or support. Quote:

Wow - I am amazed by the way some people on JC List interpret basic facts. The influx of new rental apartments might lower the ROI on rental units (assuming you are buying them for investment purposes), but one could easily argue that would be a short term drop and all of the new, higher end apartments will ultimately increase the value of all real estate as JC becomes a more desirable place to live (assuming you think that will happen, which I know not everyone on this forum does). From a condo point of view, the more people moving to the city and enjoying living here, the more people there are that will potentially become condo buyers down the road. With no new condo supply on the horizon (which will certainly change at some point so long as the economy does not crash again), the prices of existing units will continue to rise with demand outpacing supply. I am not saying that is what will happen, but the facts support my take a lot more than yours. Plus the data you linked to on Trulia do not remotely support the argument you are trying to make. I had a very similar argument with someone on Reditt a few weeks ago (maybe it was you!) - http://www.reddit.com/r/jerseycity/co ... oker_bs_jersey_city_real/

Please back this claim up with any sort of data or evidence - I am in the market looking for a condo and this does not jive with any of the numbers I have seen or what I have experienced.

A painter could probably do what you are looking for. This thread seems to list a number of painting options:

It is certainly expensive, but you get what you pay for. Experiences like can cost more than double in Manhattan and Brooklyn so I would say the pricing is more than right for JC.
See the following examples in Brooklyn (one of them in Bushwick!) http://www.blancanyc.com/tastings/index.html http://www.brooklynfare.com/pages/chefs-table

I got two wraps to go over the weekend ( a chicken and a turkey). They were both fair, at best and I am no rush to go back.
I am not clear on what exactly John's is trying to be...is it a deli? A to go place? A Restaurant? Didn't seem to be doing anything well. The layout makes no sense...the kitchen / counter takes up most of the front room and the seating is in the back or up stairs. Not sure they will be able to make it as currently set up, but hopefully they figure things out.

Perhaps they will fill up then, but your initial argument was flawed and based on incorrect assumptions. Furthermore, some of these new towers in the area (but not all), will have additional garage parking included.

I live in 50 Columbus (without a car) and while the while there are cars parking in the spaces on the nights / weekends, I would say than more than 50% of the spots in the area are available on nights / weekends.

I take the WTC path every day around 8:30 from Grove and while it is crowded, there is room and it is no worse than the 4/5/6 train I used to take during rush hour in NYC. Weekends and nice are a little rough, but that can be adressed with more trains.

I did a search to see if this had been discussed before and couldn't find anything.
Wanted to see if anyone had a good handle on the best public transit options for getting to Met Life Stadium on a Sunday from the Grove St. area of downtown. Thanks!

I mentioned this in an earlier post, but The Fresh Market (http://www.thefreshmarket.com/) would be perfect in DTJC. They are a newer chain that I would describe as a hybrid Whole Foods / Trader Joes / Fairway. They operate in a much smaller footprint than your typical Fairway / Whole Foods and are in active growth mode as a relatively new public company.

I had dinner there on Sat night - was a very enjoyable meal. Food was not exceptional, but everything was very good and the menu has something for everyone. Drinks were also well made and seemed priced right. They also give a nice Bruschetta that seemed to come out of the Pizza area hot complimentary with the meal.
I spoke a bit with the server about the different offerings. She seemed a little uncertain about things so this might not end up being 100% accurate: -The wine bar looks like it is almost done ? it has almost entirely glass walls that look into the main restaurant. The main entrance for the wine bar will be off morgan street. -There cocktail bar (speakeasy) will be accessible via a large staircase in the middle of the main restaurant. It was not open yet and I am not sure if there will also be an entrance off of the street. -I also noticed a door labeled Whiskey Bar and the server indicated that this leads to a smaller whiskey bar. This actually sounds awesome to me as a fan of Whisky / Bourbon, but in order to access the door you need to walk through a server station and I am not sure how this will work out logistically.

If they do end up putting condos there (or anywhere else nearby), the developers will likely try and put a grocery store into the retail space on the lower floors. Condos and Grocery stores are not mutually exclusive. On another note, The Fresh Market would be perfect somewhere downtown. It is basically a cross between Whole Foods and Trader Joes in a smaller, Trader Joes type space. They are expanding and would be perfect downtown.

I guess I should give CooCoo another shot...it seemed a little slow and overly complicated but after trying it this morning it should do the trick. I wish it had the ability to pre-load the schedules and work without cell service, but at least the schedules are updated in real time.
Thanks. Quote:

Does anyone use a good iPhone map that has easily accessible train times that? I know that Port Authority advertises CooCoo, but I am hoping someone has a a more simple solution with just the train schedules.
I had been using Pathway (http://www.pathschedule.org/), but the schedule no longer seems accurate and apparently the developer is not responding to requests to update it. Thanks for your help.
