tons of people driving around without plates too. i’d rather have a physical barrier than a legal one when it comes to preventing kids from being run over in the crosswalk.

That’s the benefit of active moderation on Reddit, I can filter out most of these bogus accounts.
Most of them.

It’s all for show, these are pointless.

This isn't rocket science at all. It just takes the political will to defy NIMBYs and allow density in areas served by transit. Expanding transit is also great, but requires tremendous amounts of money, which is always a problem. And heaven forbid it takes parking or driving street space from cars!
Many of you have seen this pic of Kensington Ave I've posted before, the poster child of JC density issues with R1 zoning. 2 identical lots, 56 prewar homes in nonconforming buildings on the left, 8 zoning conforming homes on the right.
And we cannot do it alone, the suburbs must densify to relieve the pressure. The town I grew up in on Long Island is 35 minutes from Penn station, has two rail stops, a cute walkable Downtown, and zero multifamily development. That is Anti-Urbanism.

It doesn’t make sense how they let go of the AC lines but didn’t replace it. The society hill, 440, Montgomery / Westside, actual 440 line and numerous others. Then they don’t want us to drive cars? The fuck outta here.

The logo was painted over a few days ago. The awning and windows were all black. No more "Jersey Greenz"

I guess I’ve been waiting for the wave of gentrification to crest up the hill from downtown and south from JSQ for it to converge on west side, but it hasn’t really happened yet.

It’s really confusing. I think the private bus company does the 31(?) bus which is the 440 shopper. The private bus routes don’t track on the NJ Transit app, making them useless because I don’t know when they come or what the schedule is.

I'm confused: Is the article an advertisement for the Cream dispensary, or the Sophia private lounge? Or did they split the cost...? 🤔🤔

This. We need to have serious discussions with them about how to eliminate the PATH organisation and transfer everything to NJ Transit or anyone else.

That's all correct except they need to build up and not out. JC doesn't have any farmland to suburbanize.

His idea is that the entire future LSP event crowds and usual people park visitors will use off-site parking... which he alleges will be the light rail parking lot....

What the? The drug scourge needs to be stopped. How are we a world class City with a bunch of drug dens
Edit: Drug addicts shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

Lesson of the day could be sharing, as in "Don't Bogart that joint, dude".

It could be worse. I've heard stories about people driving up with all their possessions to move in to a house they've rented over the internet sight unseen only to find it was a scam and the owner has no idea who they are! Who would do that???
Speaking as a landlord, I think application fees are scandalous. Given a year's lease is at least $20,000, I'm willing to eat the $30 that it costs me to run credit on a couple. It's just a cost of doing business even if someone ghosts me afterwards, as has happened. The pre-qualifying application system on Zillow does seem pretty fair however.

For small jobs, your best bet is to bundle it up as small as you can and make it easy for the collectors to put in the truck. In my experience, they won't bat an eye.

The days of the city accepting DIY debris from its residents at the 440 facility are long over. Other than paying a demo carting company, the only drive up place I know is Cardella up on Tonnelle. I think they have like $125 minimum but that covers a literal ton of waste.

That's exactly why we should talk about firing the Port Authority and getting rid of the organisation every time they do this.
