I was in this last year -- it was worth every penny. We got really great organic produce -- lettuce and other greens, potatoes, tomatoes, squash. And it's nice because it's dropped off right in the neighborhood -- there are precious few places in downtown JC where you can get organic stuff -- certainly not this fresh.

I have an old easy chair that's in tatters -- springs are poking through the bottom, and the upholstery is pretty well shredded. Does anyone know of a person or place that repairs upholstered furniture?

Thanks!

I am confused. I believe I am already in that second class of residents -- I cannot get a permit because I live in one of the large towers, so that ordinance already exisits, right? And I am therefore being forced to pay a lot each month for parking. As JC has done little to protect tenants in these high-rise buildings (my rent went up 10 percent last year, and after contacting the city, I was told I have no recourse), it would be nice if, for once, JC looked after tenants rather than developers. Why is it that, if I live in a small building, I get street parking, and if I live in a big building, I don't? And why is it that some people in big buildings get permits, while others don't? The problem is that you can't give a logical, fair explanation, and that would be a problem for the new ordinance.
Besides, you can't tie the parking directly to the apartment, as many residents don't have cars and won't want to have a parking space that they won't use included in their rent.
Maybe people who don't qualify for a permit should get some sort of rebate -- at least then it would seem more fair.
Also, the garage in my building is pretty much full-- I don't see the developer wanting for renters for the spaces. Perhaps that's because we can't get permits?

I know this topic was covered before, but not for awhile. We're planning to start a family, and I am over 35, which I've been warned can be higher risk. So I'd like to find someplace good, and someone who won't make me feel like an old hag. Previous posts did not leave me with a good feeling about Hudson County hospitals, and most everyone who responded to the post previously suggested the city, but I'd really rather drive someplace for appointments -- then there is the traffic to consider. Anyway, I'm thinking perhaps Hackensack University Medical Center. Does anyone have any suggestions for a doctor, for starters?
