What will be telling is what happens when Sears, and likely JC Penny and Pay Half are gone.

My prediction is that a Nordstrom or a Nordstrom Rack moves in...maybe a Lord & Taylor if there are two closures.

The horror! Imagine all those poor Short Hills Mall shoppers who are having their civil rights trampled on-the 1%ers having a problem buying a car from the billionaire Tesla owner with Obama tax breaks!

And Sweeney not organizing the Legislature to allow it! It could be the civil right issue of our time methinks.

Can the NJ Senate President be impeached for this?

with two sales outlets in NJ, their existing model is ONE service center, in Springfield, to take are of the whole state for service and warranty repair. Sure not very consumer friendly . . .

I'm not sure such a big deal should be made over a car (with a huge Obama 'green' tax break) that costs over $70K, to enrich a billionaire like Elon Musk though.

And just how is the electricity generated to power these 'electric' cars? Does it come from wind farms?

Just imagine if Tesla sold a thousand cars without dealer support in NJ. A design fault causes every battery to fail. Consumers would be screaming at Christie after Tesla said 'well, it'll be 6 months before we can fix your cars'. But where is our consumer protection? Why did Christie allow this to happen?


Or, GM, Chrysler, and every other manufacturer decides to go the Tesla route.

Thousands and thousands of dealer employees lose their jobs.

Little Caesar's, really? I might just drive up there to taste the pizza and see if it is still as bad as it was 20 years ago when there was one in my hometown!

On another note, while a Domino's franchise might not be quite the same as the cute little mom-and-pop, 100% locally owned pizzeria or other restaurant, I just stumbled across a story that gives an interesting statistic that blew my mind. A story on CNN says that about 90% of all Domino's franchises are owned by people who started out as delivery drivers or other entry-level employees. That's a great example of the American dream if I ever heard it.

Here's the story if you want to read:

Since we're normally at one another's throats here, nothing can bond us together like an outsider sharing his two cents about a city and striking out on every single point he's trying to make.

It was a nice thought, but sadly does not seem to be realized in this thread.

Actually, this thread went pretty well, comparatively speaking.

I walk that stretch daily - morning and night. The worst you might experience is verbal harassment. Keep in mind you can always walk back a block to Erie... that walk is always low key.

Erie has been Mugger Alley lately. I think Manila is a safer bet, if only for the higher density of car and foot traffic.
