Yes, I noticed many broken car windows recently - the latest this morning on Wayne St between Grove and Barrow.

And yes, I can also confirm: certainly a lot more dog poop this winter than I have ever seen here...

You don't have to get the triple-play from Comcast to get a good deal. They offer good introductory offers for both internet and tv - and there is no contract, so you can switch to FIOS easily once that becomes available.

Check out broadbandoffers.com and comcastoffers.com for even better deals. I have used these before and reliably received all my rebates.

Is there really a shortage of HD boxes? I assume these are the DVR / HD boxes? Has anyone else experienced this?

Was there anything specific that triggered these tax increases? Were there any significant improvements to the buildings recently? This seems very unusual to me.

Which building is this?

There will probably be significant discrepancies in price developments of single-family house / townhouses in Jersey City when comparing downtown with the rest of the City.

If subprime lending is any indication, prices outside of downtown should go down more than in downtown. Check nj.com / New Jersey by the numbers for subprime data. The percentage of subprime buyers in downtown is very low.

Another vote for Paul Lustiger at Exchange Place.

Great dentist, high-tech office equipment, never more than a few minutes wait, usually no wait at all.

Dr. Lustiger at Exchange Place is great, I can highly recommend him. I never had to wait more than five minutes, he does great work, is friendly, and uses state of the art equipment. My wife and I are both very happy with him.
