I know you asked specifically for JC, but if you can travel, I have taken old mantel clocks to the clock shop on Rt. 71 in Avon.

And the Psychedelic Furs are not going on until late, people! Jump on the PATH at Grove and jump off at JSQ. Support old things where you live.
Come to the JCLC Awards and see what's happening with our past! Did we mention there's a bar? And for traffic supposedly backed up on Newark all the way to Monteleone's, we have Monteleone's coming to us. Those cream puffs go fast. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/18th-annu ... wards-tickets-44902127472

Quick update: I took the skirt to Leather Spa on John Street and the person at the counter looked at it, grimaced, and said he'd try something. He took it in the back and came out a few minutes later with the ink much lighter but not gone. The area was lighter but he said it'd darken and he'd put conditioner on it, and that there's very little to be done with ink and suede. I asked the charge, and he said there wasn't any. I consider myself pretty lucky.
Thanks for the suggestions and recommendations.

Hi, I got ink on the front of a suede skirt. I go to Golden Cleaners for everything but they couldn't do this.
Suggestions for a place to go? I could also try Hoboken or Tribeca or the Financial District as on the way to work. Thank you

I was disappointed when they did a minor repair, charged a great deal, and were unprofessional. No doubt you can find better.

John has not led the tour for the last three years, though we imagine he will take a more active part again shortly. He has been and remains essential to JCLC.
We've been lucky to have Patrick Shahloub from NJCU join us. He's a fantastic resource.

By the way, Jennifer Furlong and Kevin Berland are historians.
There are always people who are or were from the neighborhood and they are always happy to give background information. Please share with others!

Lafayette History Tour
Sunday, May 15th at 11am The history of Lafayette is largely untold. While Washington Irving?s legendary visit to the Van Horne?s ?House of the Four Chimneys? is immortalized in such classics as ?A History of New York? and ?Wolfert?s Roost,? Lafayette remains largely forgotten in the annals of Jersey City history. How can a nearly 400-year-old neighborhood remain so overlooked by scholars? As we walk through the streets of Lafayette under the shadows of landmarks past and present, its fascinating origins emerge, revealing themselves in bricks and cornerstones, steeples and smokestacks, underground waterways. The voices of centuries-old inhabitants emerge, reminding us about transatlantic voyages, Indian villages, ancient trails, Dutch settlements, British Colonials, African-American burial grounds, railroads, ferries, industries, local legends. Continuing onward, observing more, on our tour we become the historian, capturing what had come before, writing what has never been written, sharing our knowledge. Join Jennifer Furlong, Kevin Berland, and Rebecca Shapiro on a fascinating tour and discussion of Lafayette?s rich history. Please share with others!

I don't have a lot more to add to what the others have said (and I recognize some as my neighbors). We've been here six years and have been very happy. The neighbors are nice, people are friendly, and helpful. I work in the city and have felt fine walking home from the light rail to Pacific after 10 pm, though if I feel indulgent I'll take a cab from Grove ($7). One thing that I like is that I know more people here than I ever did when I lived downtown, even though I'd run into people I recognized. There's a sense of community here and less transience. It is true that we lack the sorts of amenities that other neighborhoods have, but I like the people and the vibe and it's easy enough to get elsewhere in the city or have something delivered if you're not a driver.

Quote:
I was at the Planning Board meeting when the community was there and when this came up prior to the city council vote. The people from Greenville were not objecting to liquor being served per se *at all* and nor were they against progress, like some people here are insinuating; rather, they were objecting to language they had repeatedly questioned in the Redevelopment Plan, which allowed "bars" and "nightclubs." They had no problem with restaurants that serve liquor, BYOB restaurants, or cafes. The planners, in particular one of them, however, were adamant that they believed such establishments as "bars" and "nightclubs" would eventually bring desirable commerce to the neighborhood--over and over, despite repeated objections. They eventually agreed to suggest different language--and this only with the prodding of Boggiano. Boggiano stated more than once that the Plan could be amended later to include these types of places but if the community wanted the exclude them, they had the right to revisit the issue later.

I've gone to Daniel's based on other people's recommendations and St John's (not downtown but you someone might want to know the owner is a bit grabby and makes icky comments), and Golden Cleaners.
Golden Cleaners is a bit pricey but in the decade I've gone there they've been wonderful and nothing has ever been altered poorly.

Diane who?? She started out her term preening, but quickly moved on to complaining and whining that she couldn't get any help. She never responded to requests or messages and she's profoundly stupid. During council meetings she seems truly to not understand what is happening. I won't miss her or the devil we know.
