Thank you for the information and advice.

A snitch. Haha. When the asshole moved in he started treating everybody in the building like shit. We started off by letting the Landlord know that he was doing all kinds of crap but the landlord didn?t do anything about it. If posting flyers around the neighborhood is grounds for harassment fine then I won?t do it. Thank you for the advice that?s all I was looking for. If you knew all the bullshit we had all been through those of us that have stayed and those who were already forced out by the landlord who tried all kinds of scare tactics building was purchased last August and all kinds of other shit to get rid of half of the tenants you would Understand why am so angry .None of the 4 of 9 remaining tenants are going anywhere. Two of the four of us have lived here for 35 years. Feel free to send me a private message but why did all of the tenants in the building that you used to live in leave as opposed to fighting the harassment that you were getting from your landlord and the crazy felon tenant? We would?ve never known that this person was a criminal a felon a total piece of shit had they not acted in such a shitty way to all of us. Slade to whomever said live and let live you want this kind of shit living in the same building that you and your family live in? Bullshit! We have people with children living in this building children under the age of 10. In the three short years I?ve lived in this building the rentals in the section of the Heights have gone up three times. For the same exact size apartment in the same quality and everything else. And there?s no way I nor anyone else who?s been living here as long as I have a longer can afford to move. And as soon as I found out who the person was last night I put the Landlord on notice and so did the other tenants that have been living here. I also sent the landlord copies of everything I found that I posted on here plus everything else I found about the person online this morning in a certified letter. The landlord and the super of this building knew the tenant they moved him from some shit hole that they also own over an ocean and Grant Avenue. They told one of the other tenants here where I live that he was such a nice man, nice man my ass.

I am not looking to put up anything in the building as it is small enough I could just put info under everyone's doors or tell them face to face. I am trying to find out what I can do legally as far as putting up signs in the neighborhood on street poles like folks do when advertising stoop sales. I want this dude to know he is not welcome. I don't want to be arrested myself. I mean the info I found out is there for the world to read so if must be ok for me to let others know, right?

And thanks for the sympathy.

And these are his rap sheets

This is the website where I found that information about him:
http://hudsonreporter.com/view/full_s ... -Baer--?mobile_view=false

The person named in the article below just moved into my building about two months ago. I found out who he was because he just left his freaking recycling on top of the trashcan and I could tell he was a loser. He?s been acting like shit ever since he moved into the building so I googled his name From one of the boxes he left on top of the trash. How can I find out when he goes to trial for the crime he most recently committed listed below? He?s been to prison several times and was most recently released in 2015 after a stent in prison for robbery. He?s a known felon. I am disgusted with the fact that my landlord has let this person move into our building. Am I allowed to make a flyer with his name and the crimes that he most recently committed and his photo and pass it out to the neighbors on our block? I live in a small quiet building up in the Heights on a block with mostly elderly neighbors. and by god if the son of a bitch is going to take advantage of any of us. Our building was recently sold and the new owners and Landlord are real jackasses. I would move but my rent would triple and I can?t afford that and neither can anyone else that has been living in my building as long as I have. The building does have working Newly installed security cameras but this dude was also moved into the building from another property that the landlord and superintendent run. I also just purchased an in home security device that I can monitor from my phone off of Amazon. I couldn?t sleep all night last night because of knowing who is living across the hall from me.


Man with 49 warrants arrested

Jersey City resident Curtis Thrower, age 51, was arrested and charged with burglary, credit card theft, uttering, five counts of fraudulent use of credit cards, theft or movable property, forgery, and 49 outstanding warrants.

A victim reported that someone had entered her office in the 100 block of Clinton Street without her permission and stole her credit card, Bank of America prepaid card, and drivers license from her wallet. Once she noticed her belongings were missing she checked her bank account and noticed several unauthorized purchases made at locations in Hoboken and Jersey City.

Officer Michael Losurdo conducted a follow up investigation. He identified Thrower from video surveillance footage as the man allegedly responsible.

Thrower has been arrested several times in the past for the same crimes according to the release.

On April 12, Thrower was arrested by the Jersey City Police Department for the outstanding warrant and was transported to the Hoboken Police Department for processing. Thrower had an outstanding warrant issued by the Jersey City Municipal Court and 48 motor vehicles warrants from Jersey City. He was processed and transported to the Hudson County Correctional Facility.

Thanks everyone.

Other than taking the path to the a train from world trade out to JFK and or taking an Uber which I just don?t want to spend the money on what are my other options? Has anyone ever taken the path the world trade and then a SuperShuttle from say the millennium Hilton? I don?t mind spending 20 bucks and it taking an hour and a half, I just don?t want to have to take the path to the subway and then change to the skytrain. Are there any SuperShuttle type shuttles from Jersey City? I know are used to be the case where they would only drop off at hotels here and not pick up from them. Anyone know if there?s any shuttles out of Journal Square? I?ve seen the airporter shuttle there but I?ve never ever seen it pick people up and I can?t seem to find anything online about either SuperShuttle or the airporter online. Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Thank you for understanding. I'm paying my rent. I'm not looking for a handout or a free ride. I just want to stay in a place that I can actually afford to pay for. Like you said they knew this was a rent controlled building and they took the gamble that they could harass us and push us out.

So are you the person that bought my building? I don't want to move I don't care how much money they offer me that was why I said $100,000 to show them that I ain't freaking moving. Where did I say it took so little effort to find this apartment? You're a real jerk. you must sit around on your computer all day seeing as how you've made over 1000 comments and posts on here. I said I looked in the area and my rent would almost double for the same amenities, size and kind of apartment that I have in a building with similar kinds of people. You're not offering any help here buddy. go away now bye-bye. I know what escrow is if I didn't I know how to ask Google.I don't want money in a bank account I want cash money and $100,000 of it. unreasonable? I don't care I'm not moving.
And when I said $25,500 ain't shit to me what I meant was doubling my rent is going to end up costing me a lot more over a few years then $22,500 is going to give me. An extra hundred dollars a month is $1200 a year. That extra expense would mean that I wouldn't get to go home to see my family twice a year like I do now. That's not a sacrifice I'm going to make, sugar.I asked for assistance on what I could do to get my landlord to cash my rent check and not try to hold onto it like I've heard landlords try to do for three months so that they can try to evict you and say that you haven't paid your rent. Nobody seems to be offering this help thanks anyway y'all.

I misspoke, Buildings that are not new that have five or more apartments are considered rent controlled. Here's another article that you can read for more information from nj.com
https://www.google.com/amp/www.nj.com/ ... n_jersey_city_opinion.amp

It's just a regular apartment that I found on craigslist 2 1/2 years ago. Rent controlled is not the same as section 8 housing. I live in a small building with only nine apartments. anything over I think it's six or seven in Jersey City and is not a brand new building is considered rent controlled. Basically it means that the city puts out a table that says how much the landlord is allowed to raise ones rent depending upon which month domeone moved in. So for example last year my rent went up .7% this year It can only go up about 2%. I lived downtown for over 10 years, and I always lived in small buildings. I learned my lesson when my last landlord downtown kept raising my rent about 20% every year and then finally raised it more than I could afford to pay. So I specifically looked for buildings that had seven or eight apartment so that it would fufill the rent controlled requirement. This link from the city will give you more information about what rent control means and it also includes the table of how much rent control buildings can have the rent raised per year http://www.jerseycitynj.gov/hedc.aspx?id=1182

do you think I'm stupid? You want him to pay me after I leave the property? I also asked for advice on what I can do about getting my landlord to respond and about making sure that he didn't try to pull some bullshit and not cash my rent checks and take me to court saying that I never paid my rent. Why should I leave? I'm a six minute bike ride from work a 20 minute walk to Journal Square path station. I love my neighbors and my neighborhood. Out of curiosity I looked into what something equivalent would cost in the same neighborhood and it would double my rent even though I've only been here for 2 1/2 years.

You talk like you're a Landlord or someone who buys Apts like what happened to mine and tries to push people out. This is my home, this is where I feel safe where I feel comfortable.

Not five minutes after meeting the new owner he said that he would maybe consider offering people a couple of months rent to move out. I told him I would move for $100,000 and six months to move. And I walked away. My rent is only 750 a month by the way for my own little studio with a washer dryer in the basement. 30 months rent is only roughly $22,500 that ain't shit

Hello. So my building was recently purchased and we have had some issues with the landlord. This month we started sending our rent checks to a new address in Brooklyn. I mailed my rent check two weeks early on purpose because the intention of the landlords is they put is to "gut renovate the building" and they said they were going to do what it took to get us out of here. It's a rent controlled building and those of us that live here do not want to move. Anyway, enough of the backstory it's now the 10th of the month and we never got a rent receipt from last months rent and they still have not cashed our checks. I called landlord and tenant relations today and a very nice woman that I spoke to said she had received calls from other people in my building about this issue and others. She then proceeded to tell me that I need to make sure that I always have the amount of rent in my bank account and suggested opening a separate account just to keep my rent in to make sure I do not accidentally spend it. She said that landlords have this thing where they don't cash rent checks for three months then they try to get you evicted saying that you never sent your rent checks in. I am just flabbergasted that some jerks will try to do this. How can they do that to an entire building? How can A landlord try and say that nobody in the building paid rent? The woman at landlord tenant relations told me that I need to relay this information to everyone in my building. I've spoken to at least three of the other tenants, and one of them suggested that we start sending our rent checks with The regular mail but sending it with tracking. My neighbor told me that it's cheaper than sending it certified mail and unlike certified mail no signature has to be given in order for the parcel to be delivered.
Is there any other advice that folks can offer? I know my rent check has only not been cashed for 10 days and not two months, but these new owners are really slimy and when I called the city to tell them who they were they laughed and said yeah these people do that all the time. And yes myself and the other two tenants that I know for sure Who haven't had their checks cashed either have called and texted the landlord and he is not responding at all.

Hahahaha. So this stupid fuck was so wasted that he was unable to call for an m, Uber and it took him several hours to walk back to Hoboken? He got drunk, he fell down on his motherfucking face and he tried to make up a story to cover for his shit ass stupidity. It's like the dumb drunk rich kids I see passed out on the sidewalks in New York fuck them I hope they all get fucking robbed

ha...great idea. I let my friend know about the shuttle. Merci

ok. thanks so much everyone.

i know but not exactly...my friend is going to Unilever 800 sylvan englewood cliffs 07632. i cant tell if the minibuses go there and nj transit buses still require a 20 minute walk. the map cuts off for englewood cliffs for the minibuses on the site given in the other reply. thanks

Hi Does anyone know for sure if the Minibuses go from the NYC side of the GW Bridge bus terminal to Englewood Cliffs, NJ or will my friend have to take NJ transit buses? Thanks

And in the last few months 2 new tenants have moved in, and both times when the landlord was preparing those apartments for the new tenant I noticed that they had a big box of these ceiling fluorescent lights, so I just figured they replaced the bulbs and our apartments. I wasn't sure exactly so that's why am asking.

How is my question not staying on good terms with my landlord? that's why am asking the question in the first place if my landlord is not legally responsible to change the bulbs then I'll figure out a freaking way to do it myself.

my lease doesn't say anything it's just you know the standard one that you can print off the Internet.

Well did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed, not have lunch yet, or haven't been laid in a while, which one is it asshol*?

Why the shitty angry response? I asked who is responsible for changing it. I didn't say I wouldn't do it I've just had the experience in the last 13 years in every place I've ever lived that when the lights in the ceiling, the long skinny bulbs burn out, my landlord has always taken care of it before, and that was in three different places with three different landlords.

didn't your mother ever teach you that if you don't have something nice to say you should just not say anything at all? I really don't get why you had to respond the way you did you must be a lazy fat ahole landlord who treats his tenants like crap.

By the way my toilet seat broke a few months back, and I went out and bought myself a new one and replaced it myself and then sent the landlord the receipt and they gladly reimbursed me for it, so crawl back in your self righteous judgment hole.

A couple of the long skinny lightbulbs that go in the ceiling of my apartment have burned out. I texted my landlord and asked them to change them, and they said that they don't normally replace the lightbulbs. I've lived in Jersey City in three or four different apartments over the last 13 years, and anytime similar light bulbs burned out my landlords always changed them no problem. I'm trying to find out who is legaly responsible for changing these lightbulbs. I don't even have a ladder or a chair tall enough to change the bulbs. Thanks.

Wow you sound like a coldhearted cun*. Why don't you take your freaking coffee and go back to your nice warm house, car or office, and have a little empathy for those that have no place to go asshat. Lots of Starbucks around the country have started removing the chairs to discourage everyone, even people who have the money to pay for coffee and have a home to not sit and stay for so long.

I have no clue where PS 8 is, but there is a parking garage at Christ Hospital on Palisade Ave.

Well this is terrible news. They are so much friendlier and have much better prices and turn around service than that crappy bike store downtown ever could. The jerks in the place downtown always have so much freaking attitude, oh I'm so cool. The folks at James Vincent were always nice you never felt like you were getting ripped off.

I said I called a few of the corporate housing places in the high-rises, but they all want a one-month stay. high-rises are fine as long as they are purposefully made to be apartments for guests ie, hotel like. I don't want a place were someone else is living there part of the time. Do you have any specific contact information for these high-rises? I'm looking for something for 300 a night or less including all taxes and cleaning fees and so on. Otherwise my dad could just stay at one of the other hotels in downtown Jersey City on the waterfront for around 309 a night. Thanks.

I'm looking for a hotel feel place for my dad to stay next week for one night super close to Grove, NEWPORT or Exchange Place PATH stations. It must be corporate feeling and not an Airbnb place. He usually stays at the Hyatt but those fucks want $500+ and the Westin is $400 for Wednesday of next week. I called come corporate housing places in the super nice high rises on the waterfront, but they require a 1 month stay. Thank you.
