I knew something was up when my mother (who lives in Manhattan) called and said a couple friends were visiting in town and they really wanted to visit Jersey City and get dinner at a pizza place. Cool to see JC getting more attention.

I saw a sign at Trump Bay Street that says that a CVS Pharmacy is coming.

Trump Bay Street
65 Bay St
Jersey City, NJ 07302

FYI that block is outside the area where chain stores are restricted. It is one block outside the zone.

That doesn't make any sense. Suez is responsible for replacing their meter. Now if the main can't be shut off before the meter, then that would be your responsibility. Check your house, there is usually a valve on the inside of your house but before the meter.

As long as that valve can be shut off for them to replace, it shouldn't be a problem. If you're saying that both your inside valve and the street valve need to be replaced, then you have a pretty large job ahead of you.

do automatic, electronic license plate readers exist such that the police could place around town and stop more stolen vehicles?

Very likely, that is how this car was spotted. Some of the JCPD units have the automatic plate reading cameras installed on the trunk lid. Surely you have seen these before. They look like boxes that point forward diagonally.

Here is what they look like mounted on an NYPD patrol car:

Just read an interesting article about Chariot vanpool service, which uses Ford vehicles, will debut next month in manhattan.

i think such a service between manhattan and jersey city would be useful.

How about instead of Ford Vans they use amphibious buses and skip the tunnel?

So... looks like JC actually did better $ w/Exchange Place vs LSP. Most expenses were a wash but we doubled $ from the Carnival. Go figure

Developers break ground on Jersey City micro-units apartment building

By Kristen Keller  The Jersey Journal

The concept of tiny houses has become popular around the country -- even spawning two HGTV shows -- and now developers are trying it with apartment living. 

Nest Micro Apartments will offer fully furnished units that are less than 300 square feet in Journal Square. The building is being developed by KSNY, of New York, and Strategic Properties.

$1,300 ?! Incredible and a sorry reflection of how unaffordable life is becoming in the NYC metro area.

No, Pebble, he retired because many of his patients could not afford Obamacare, they can afford only to pay the fines or the bronze plan, which is no insurance at all. He is not retired from medicine, he decided to work for an insurance company by visiting patients in their homes. This prevents them from using nursing homes. The bottom is - Obamacare is a mess. Arizona had a 116% increase in 2016. Government does some things well, but it is horrible at managing education and healthcare.

What he says is that while he never used it and was fundamentally against it. He was glad there was a low cost option if he needed it. There will be with the new plan as well. Also, something Obama care chooses not to state is that before it someone could write off healthcare costs above 7% of their salary. Obamacare has raised that level to 10%

there might be a low cost option...but what will the deductible be? what happens to the 22 million that stand to lose their coverage!

As I stated in a previous post my deductible is $3200 before Obamacare it was $500

yes, i agree that it sucks that your deductible went up. so, did mine and i had to pay a lot more in taxes but at the end of the day which is better a $3200 deductible or not having access to insurance.

hero, I was replying to your post. You had stated earlier that the new plan might offer a low cost option but at what deductible. I pointed out that deductibles have already shot sky-high.
If a new plan is implemnted and less people are covered and deductibles continue to climb as you state. I will agree that it is a failure
