Thanks, that's good to hear. We don't have a car and so have to get everywhere by foot. Hoping that at least a coffee shop or small grocery shop pops up one of these days.

You need a car living around that area. I am not trying to be cynical but it is NOT safe especially after dark if you walk around. All it takes is 1 unlucky encounter to ruin your life. Majority of the people living in the beacon zooms in and out in their car/jitney to downtown jersey city.

Your description of the area around The Beacon as "unsafe" is rather funny. The area is just fine. I've walked that area at all areas and there is almost never anyone on the street.

I doubt that you've actually been in that area at any point in the last couple of years.

oh geez not you again, i am not going to waste time engaging you anymore in your reality distorting fantasies. You live in your own lala land.

I lived in jersey city for 10+ years, know the area very well. Readers can make up their own minds if that area outside of the beacon is safe or not.

Living in a large city doesn't mean you know each area intimately. You, obviously, know nothing about the area surrounding the Beacon despite your claims.

Engage in discussion or not, it doesn't matter. You lie when calling the area dangerous. I'm simply calling you out on it.

just a note on the music scene - I personally dont want any music here. I come home from working in nyc and want peace and quiet. Thats why many live here instead of nyc. its freakin quiet. I need some sleep, dammit.

I think Fulop made a douchbag move, and I voted for him. He was totally out of line.

I will continue to post every murder under this thread that occurs under this administration. I am a fan of Fulop and his team.
I voted for him and most of the council winners. However I do not believe Fulop is God like some on here do. Lets see how murders are handled under his watch.

I saw 7 different bands play in JC this past weekend alone. To say there is no live music in town is a bit of a stretch.

Can you share where? Sounds awesome.

Sounds just like this burglary last June.

Thank you for sharing that link. The video is no longer available but based on the stills I'm almost certain that he is leaving my building. I'm going to print out the stills and have the detective working on it take a look at them. I haven't seen the video from my burglary (I'm new and figured I wasn't going to recognize anyone) but now I'm really curious to take a look at the person. Also, really concerned this happened last year as well.

Pardon my confusion.

Your neighbor is smoking with the windows open, but it's getting into your apartment. Are we to assume the smoke is reaching your apartment through your open window?

If so, you might want to get a box fan and put it in your window, facing out, allowing air from the seams in your front door to displace the smoke-laden air in your space. I can't imagine how much smoke could possibly find its way from one apartment, out a window, through the aether of the outdoors atmosphere, and into your window that it would be the source of a significant quality of life issue, unless you're very sensitive to the smell of smoke, which I guess is possible.

You could try talking to your neighbor, if you haven't done so already. While going over his/her head to management to bitch about stuff could be perceived as a lack of decency and/or respect and doesn't put you in the best position to bang on the door and ask for favors, being a decent human being and going face-to-face with someone you have an issue with can go a very long way towards resolving differences.

P.S.: Is "multiunit managed apartment building" realtor code for "priapic douchebag highrise"? If so, please update us on every development, minor or not.
