While I'm sorry to see Ox go, I do wonder now that the place has been brought up to speed with renovations and everything, will the next guy have an easier go if they open it as a restaurant? Also these business owners that sign a lease and get stuck paying rent while not open should look at alternatives, perhaps offering a portion of gross sales once they open in lieu of rent while they are renovating.

Did the guy at Atomic Wings really spend 2 years not opened and paying rent? I find this hard to believe, but then again who really knows.


yes the Atomic wings guys did pay rent for the two years that they navigated all the bull shit, and so did ox...no one asked for payouts, just abuse of power and total incompetence on the employees at building dept. and it is not 550, 000 to buy it, it's probably about 1/2 of that from what i was told..

just got the whole story on what happened to them(ox)..Holy crap! they never had a chance! so far behind in debt due to hold up's at the building Dept. and last minute construction required by the fire Dept combined with all the rent they were paying while waiting to open, they needed all of us to eat there everyday for a month to get caught up.. the details of the building dept. stuff are horrifying! the women who filled me in told me that the atomic wings had even worse issues getting open...now i know why no one wants to rent any of these buildings, the bldg/fire dept are making the tenants upgrade everything from sprinklers to god knows what and i'm sure landloards aren't all that willing to chip in? hopefully this city will get their shit together and help people open business instead of making it impossible to open and stay in biz!

i am totally bummed about ox.. i had great meals there a few times and i was so happy that newark ave seemed to be coming around!,,ox, wing joint,, new palace drug owners etc..seamed as if we were getting closer to merging the jersey ave to grove block, but i guess people aren't really ready to head up there yet... it was a cool small biz run by the owners.. a vibe i really like and is usually a success model. Shame on the people who never tried it and are complaining about the neighborhood..( no one specific,but in general)

if the traffic flows better at that intersection after they are done, it will be so worth any construction inconvenience we have to suffer..

i wasn't really complaining about our system here, as much as just mentioning the things i liked about the london tube system that we don't have, i agree that our system is great, especially now that we have things like metro cards ( the token system used to kill me)..path was ahead of mta with that stuff too.

as that particular piece of NJ roadway might not be very good, as a person who has driven all over the country i think that New jersey actually has some of the best and most well maintained roads..in my experience south carolina is the worst ( at least it is along 95)

was just in london and can't believe how much more advanced their transit system is than our on so many levels, especially the message boards that tell you when the next train will arrive in the station, if the new flat screens had that info i wouldn't care where my fare money went
