Be careful what you wish for. If you force everyone into it you may not like the political outcome

With these double digit rent increases, you're not wrong.

Oh what! That’s so cool! Thank you so much for sharing. We are doing a virtual tour today and then will probably apply. I am excited about the amenities as well given that I work from home and will be there a fair bit. I’m excited for your son! I’m sure the pool and rooftop will be very fun for him!

Oh, and they're opening a branch of the JC Public Library on the ground floor. That sealed the deal for us.

Yes, we toured, but didn't see many other buildings.
For us, it was amenities vs. price. We've been in Newport for 5 years and our rent would have been higher than 295J if we stayed. If we stayed we wouldn't have the gym, the courtyard, the co-working space (a big plus for me). Our son has also been going to PS22 up the street—since we were unable to go to our local school, PS37—so there's less upheaval for him. He's also a water bug, so the pool (tiny as it may be) will be absolutely massive for him. My wife and I are now work-from-home full time, so being further from the PATH train isn't a big deal.
There were more pro's than con's, but there were some cons when we made the decision:
• There's no big supermarket in the area, not yet at least. We've been doing ShopRite From Home since the pandemic, but it is still helpful if you need to run out quick to get like, mushrooms. (We will miss Newport's exceptional East and South Asian grocery specialties). The same is true for a pharmacy/CVS/Duane Reade for that kind of stuff.
• The construction noise. We're on the southwest corner where one building is going up, so there will be daytime noise. Though, as my wife put it: "It's a city."
• Our new apartment is smaller by about 100 sq feet than our current place, but our hope is that we'll use the amenities as much as we can if we need to stretch our legs.
It's a bit of a gamble for us, but considering what we would get for the price we were offered, it was very hard to turn down.

Jersey city may be ranked high in diversity but there are some integral things that are missing. But let’s continue opening more taco, pizza and edgy sandwich spots.

They are proposing to build up the area that is currently behind the fence and not in use
It's amazing to be this angry and aggressive about something you apparently haven't spent 5 min looking at.
Edit: to be clear. It is the timing and motives and potential conflicts of interestand ownership that suck about this.
The golf course bit no longer exists (I suppose you could argue it will come back). The area proposed to be developed here, is the exact same area the DEP would be proposing to develop (albeit it is likely with a lot more stuff/ buildings).

Reply to Just got a ticket / summons for PATH ticket evasion, what are my next steps ? by dedbutalive
1 mistake is not going to define your life, this is a misdemeanor offense and it will not disrupt your life terribly. Reading between the lines, it sounds like you're nervous about someone else finding out about it - if that's the situation, it's best to have that conversation with people early and let them know what happened.
The ticket will likely take a few days to "go into the system," and then give a call to the PATH police: 201-216-6078; they should be able to give you more information.
You're going to be alright.
