I think she owned the long-abandoned building on 2nd St b/w Jersey & Coles that homeless people squat in (and set fires in) during the winter months. It's finally being renovated after 4-5 years of neglect.

"Mrs. Kassim, (formerly O?Bryant) 32, owns a real-estate company in Jersey City that bears her name"

I can't google up any realtors in JC with the name O?Bryant associated with it. I am calling for an investigation.

Was there supposed to be a point? How about some happy local interest story? I think it's hilarious the way some people on this board are hostile as a reflex to the most innocent items. Congratulations to the happy couple!!

And your point?
