NEW RENOVATION OF STARBUCKS ON GROVE:
Terrible experience. I have been coming to the Starbucks on Grove since it opened. I have to tell you, my husband and friends can not believe the new renovation that was done.
-No Seating: almost 50% less than before
-Large empty spaces where tables can go
-No room to sit because of homeless or people without drinks/food taking up seats/outlets AND the staff say nothing to them
-Looks like a suburban not an Urban Starbucks
-Feels sterile and not comfortable
-And the craziest part is in the back of the store, there is a table with 2 foot stools which looks like a 'kids time out area'
-Partners dislike the layout and are complaining as well
This Starbucks used to be always packed and now there are only minimal people sitting because of lack of seating
-The window seating is uncomfortable
-Most of the seating is facing a wall or outside instead of the interior of the store
RESOLUTION:
Get rid of the huge merchandise table when you walk into the building and put more seating, as well as the back of the store where the long table used to be. More people, more business !!



Is all this ruining the Starbucks experience for you? GTFO

I had off last week and passed this on my way back from 99 Ranch and said to my wife, can you imagine being a kid trying to learn in that school with this noise going on. It was pretty terrible.

Odd, I just talked to the P&K people and they said they are definitely not planning on closing or moving, and actually they are looking to expand into an additional location. The pedestrian plaza and lack of parking is definitely hurting their business but they say they are not going anywhere. And I have also lived here for 30 years as of this fall. :)


Please let that new location be a P+K take over of Lee's.



Lee's is doing just fine, and their store is actually a lot smaller than the space P&K has now, unless of course you meant TenderShoot or you have it out for Lee's on Grove Street for some reason.

$37 million awarded to N.J. couple in Johnson & Johnson baby powder cancer suit

JOE DZIEMIANOWICZ
BILL SANDERSON
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS

Updated: Friday, April 6, 2018, 8:23 PM

It?s soft, powdery, sweet-smelling ? and, says a New Jersey jury, deadly.

Johnson & Johnson was ordered to pay $37 million in the case of a man who said he got cancer from the company?s baby powder, which he believes contained talc laced with asbestos.

Banker Stephen Lanzo III was awarded $30 million in compensatory damages Thursday by a New Brunswick, N.J., jury. Lanzo?s wife, Kendra, got $7 million.

Lanzo, 46, said he used Johnson & Johnson talc-based powder products for more than 30 years.

Retired FDNY firefighter dies of 9/11-related cancer
He claimed that by inhaling dust from the products that contained cancer-causing asbestos, he contracted mesothelioma, a deadly form of cancer that affects the lining of the lungs.

The jury found J&J responsible for 70% of the damages and a division of France-based talc supplier Imerys was responsible for 30%.

Lanzo?s case was the first to go to trial in New Jersey, Johnson & Johnson?s home state. The jury sat barely a mile from J&J headquarters.

One of the company?s biggest shareholders is Woody Johnson, a pal of President Trump and the current U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom. Johnson, who owns the New York Jets, is a great-grandson of J&J founder Robert Wood Johnson.

Brooklyn mom with cancer fights for husband?s return from Mexico
J&J is fighting thousands of lawsuits claiming its talc products also cause ovarian cancer.

Talc itself is not believed to be cancerous. It?s a mineral made up mainly of magnesium, silicon and oxygen.

A banker claimed that using Johnson & Johnson talc-based products for decades caused his cancer.

But talc is often mined near asbestos, which is long proven to cause mesothelioma, a rare form of cancer. Mesothelioma is almost always fatal.

Johnson & Johnson and other companies say that since the 1970s, they?ve kept asbestos out of their baby powders and other talc products.

J&J denied the lawsuit?s charges and said its products ? such as Johnson?s Baby Powder ? don?t contain asbestos or cause cancer.

During the trial, J&J lawyers claimed Lanzo could have contracted mesothelioma from other sources, said media reports. It noted that the house in Montclair, N.J., where he grew up once had asbestos-wrapped pipes, and that the public schools attended were also treated for asbestos.

?While we are disappointed with this decision, the jury has further deliberations to conduct in this trial and we will reserve additional comment until the case is fully completed,? Johnson & Johnson spokeswoman Carol Goodrich said in a statement.

The jury will begin a second phase of the trial to consider punitive damages on Tuesday.

J&J faces talc-related lawsuits by 6,610 plaintiffs around the country, Reuters reports.

The claims are largely based on allegations that the company failed to warn women about the risk of developing ovarian cancer by using its products for feminine hygiene.

A Los Angeles judge in October tossed a $417 million verdict for a woman who said she got ovarian cancer from J&J talc products.

Fliers are also illegal in our building, yet we've gotten TWO in our door from Symes. Enough. Additionally, I've gotten 6 (I counted) pieces of mail from Team Symes since the general election.

I'd rather her not waste her money, or shall I say KRE et al. It is clear she is a shill for the real estate developers.

I voted Solomon on the issues, experience and competence and will do so again on 12/5. I refuse to vote for someone who is bought and its clear by the amount she has spent on direct mail alone that she is. It is clear she is outspending him.


My god these people are relentless. Every effing day knocking on my door and leaving shit on my stoop. I can't even sit on the couch and relax without one of her assholes ringing my bell. Today she has children shilling for her. F U lady.

1. Two of my cats who were indoor outdoor lived to be 20 years old.

2. We take care of 3 former ferals in our yard who are fixed and vaccinated and are now 7 years old.

3. While I understand what you might be trying to say don't be such a judgemental prick. You have no clue what the circumstances are as to why this cat was outside. Stick to what you know, posting crap news and handing out $5 bills at bars.

Hi everyone. I went out this weekend and not just once but twice neighbors called the police on the noise levels at a couple local bars. I won't name the bars...but they are ones that were here before these newbies even knew the words Jersey City. They are bars and it's the weekend. You are wasting the police's time to have them come in for a second asking people to be quiet which doesn't even work...because it's a bar!! Geeee...let me buy a home in proximity of a bar and then complain that the bar is making too much noise....on the weekend! What is wrong with you rats? Holy moly! Get a life! Wow!

I also want to add that the new residents complained about the gorgeous church bells that rung on 6th and Monmouth. That was a beautiful aspect to this area and the newbies complained so much that a church now cannot ring their bells! Their Church Bells!!! Who the heck doesn't like church bells! I'm Jewish and I even love the pretty historic noise they make!

JC Make It Yours...yeah I don't think so! It was everyone's before these douches moved in! Whaaaa the bars make noise...whaaa the church rings it's bells...whaaa whaaa whaaaa...go back to Manhattan or wherever you came from! Holy mackerel

Same for me, I have never been charged sales tax there, in fact they always round the price to benefit the customer. if your total comes to $16.54 they will only charge you $16.50

The Nightclub/bar/restaurant concept of this site has a legal limit of 49 people. That is inclusive of employees and customers.

There is only one means of ingress, egress in case of an emergency and that is out the front door.

The owners are not neighborhood friendly and have to date thrown boulders in the river since the deed was transferred.

The owners have had and continue to have actually been a very bad neighbor.

Without permission they have been on neighbors roofs, backyards, working without permits, taking the facade down ? all without permission, and has jeopardized the health of the upstairs tenant.... the list goes on and on.



Evelyn and Carmen NOT taking proper precautions is as common as Chris Christie eating. They are both lawyers, they know what they can get away with. Ask their employees and the person they leased the original location from. This surprises me ZERO

No, I just refuse to drink the cultural kool-aid. Men do not belong in women's restroom/lockeroom/etc. The same people who complain about Obama and emails/privacy thinks nothing of privacy for women when she is most vulnerable.



I've never complained about Obama, and give zero shits about Hillary's emails, I'll still be voting for her and fine with sharing a bathroom with anyone, regardless of gender. Enjoy your weekend, I'm sure there is a Murder She Wrote marathon on somewhere

I would love to hear any ideas that actually work as well. We have 3 ferals we take care of (all fixed and vaccinated) so we can't use heavy duty chemicals. We've tried kid and pet friendly mosquito fogger and spray which is completely worthless, and also set up the soda bottles with yeast and brown sugar which works a tiny bit but also would catch butterflies which made me sad.

I won't argue you on that. I just pulled it from my ass, having never heard of a terrorist attack from Sikh's. Like I said I could be wrong.


There was one quite famous aircraft bombing carried out by Sikh militants back in 1985.

But yes, as far as these dangerous mass-delusion death cults go, the Sikhs are comparatively chilled.



Wow that is awful, thank you for informing me. I was in 4th grade at the time so it clearly went over my Smurf loving head. I was too lazy to google anything the other night. I actually really appreciate you informing me and not ripping me a new ass lol. Cheers
