I could be wrong, but we will be paying for this.

Deferring responsibility to a large, for-profit business is exactly how we don?t pay for it... until we want to buy tickets for something that is.

?That?ll be $25 for the ticket... plus a $10 a surcharge for administrative feather tickling... plus $5 for lack-of-accountability insurance... plus $6.66 for our pact with Satan...?

If they want it to be a resource, and so does Fulop, it seems in their best interests to work together. Complaining about "The City" holding you back for 20 years, and then also complaining about the same city's mayor wanting to push you forward, leaves you no direction in which to move IMO.

There is a guy on Newark, Surach. Never used him, but I walk by that office every day.

Surach Peter G CPA

He is looking for recommendations, Just seeing a shingle in the street? Why not just tell him to look it up in the yellow pages. It would actually be more useful!

Thanks, but no thanks - I prefer not to give people a reason to come here. I like it just fine without tourists. Hell, I don't want a Trader Joe's or even high capacity restaurants that bring in people, usually by car, from other nabes or surrounding towns. I like the fact that we now have some nice restaurants, but couldn't care less about galleries and theatres. If God had wanted galleries, theatres, museums, etc. in JC she wouldn't have created Manhattan and the public transit to get there (this may be the work of the devil, but I'll leave that to the more theologically inclined).

No I am not kidding, I never mentioned white, my keywords were Beige, and sterile. I love how you read.

Beige:
A person that is normal to the point of being bland. No style, works a 9-5 job, does not express their individuality. These people can be found in Starbucks, often wearing neutral color clothes, perhaps from the GAP, while sipping a latte and discussing last nights t.v. shows as if the characters were their friends. In group settings it can be difficult to tell them apart. Beige people often never stray from their path or pack. These people commonly experience more eccentric life through others.
Sterile:
Lacking imagination, creativity, or vitality.

Just to be clear what I mean, I have lived in white, Latino, black and Asians areas around the states and did not grow up in JC and never left unlike some... get a clue before you start spitting out I hate white people, damn idiot.

The waterfront in JC sucks it should have gone all the way around the city, it should not cut off... in BK and even Hoboken you can walk around the entire water front which we cannot. As far as clubs, I don't think a club here would be very interesting too many peeps here are on different pages.

We have MORE than enough bars and restaurants and places to hang out. There seem to be an endless supply of people who want places built to their specs. Ain't happening. What do clubs bring? Crime and stupidity. Have you ever been in Hoboken on a weekend night around the PATH station? It's a joke. Jersey City doesn't "need" that. The last thing we need is a Welcome Mat for idiots. And if you think "well we just need a club that's fun but kind of chill and no troublemakers and blah, blah, blah.." then you are blowing smoke up your own ass.

The only thing he actually got 100% right is #6 but honestly it wouldn't hurt if the city allowed a few clubs here. It wouldn't turn in Hoboken if clubs were scattered around the city. Problem with Hoboken is most of the clubs are centered around one small location.

But yea he really only got #6 right.

What about Surf City and that Beer Hall? Why the #OOPS# would we want clubs? Doesn't anyone remember when they had that club under the TPK/1-9 Ramp? Just brought dangerous drivers and drunks making their way through quiet, residential streets. Jersey City has everything in the way of bars, restaurants and clubs. Just use them and stop thinking that more of the same is helpful to this city or just move to Hoboken, NYC or New Orleans.

Uh uh uh... to have fun. This city lacks any real night life even smaller cities have a better night life than JC and whether you like it or not nightlife is an integral part of living in a city even if the city bills itself as being "chill". People like to go and have fun something I doubt you know anything about. People would rather spend a night out in their own city rather than have to take a train or bus, into another city, which stop operating long before the typical closing hours for most clubs. Restaurants and a few bars won't do. If you want people to be as bored with life as you are then I highly suggest you move to West Bubble Fuk, Indiana.

Place can be just an open shell were I can bring my own food and liquor, a place were I can bring my own liquor, or full service dependent on pricing.

Looking for a great place for the best price.

JoeGee nailed this reply. If you put your check on hold and it's declined, well, you just lost your lease opportunity.

DelForno has been around a long time. Generally OK, but apartments that they also MANAGE (and sometimes own outright) have had TONS of renter complaints about repairs, etc. And they play hardball if you bitch. Personally, I'd work with another realtor...

Hey fellow residents:

My neighbor has tenants that partially block my driveway. There are ample of street parking yet seem like purely driven by convenience they block their driveway and in process partially block me. I have complained to the landlord and the tenants but every so often the tenants change and gotta start all over again.

I can wiggle and pull my car out but that means that during rush hr my vision is potentially blocked on both sides while pulling out my car.

Suggestions?

Isn't there already something before the planning board to divide one of those spaces?

I like the idea of a competition, but I bet those spaces get divided up all by themselves. You can probably fit 4 pizzerias and 3 nail salons in each ;)

+1. Never ceases to amaze me how bars make the effort of having a huge selection of beers and then serve it all out of filthy taps. Same goes for Iron Monkey. No point in priding yourself on all the beers you have on tap when they all have a piss aftertaste.

I am about to make an offer on an apartment that is listed through Del Forno. They are telling me that before they present the offer to the property owner, I need to leave a "good faith deposit" of one month's rent, as well as getting a credit report and filling out a rental agreement.

Just out of curiosity... How fast is delivery? Say I order today, when should I expect it to arrive?

getting a heaters to prevent frostbites.

It is electric air fan heater. One says 59 as temperature reached and the other is on 43 now.

The air-conditioning is cranked up to 90 but it blows freakishly cold air so we keep it off.

I am telling you (stiff upper lip and joking about it) but toilet is the worst. I could keep groceries in

Thank you! We read it and since we did not get any reply from management we contacted Health Dept.

Problem with that law is that it is applied to landlords who provide heat that is included in the bill. We pay our own heating - so landlord does not actually surlily the heat - but it does supply the appliances for the heat, which are - in this case - cold.

As they shrugged shoulders when we asked it to be "cranked up" or ANYTHING really, we do not expect an action except - waiting for the spring. In a meantime, our heating bill may be a disaster.
