Thank you, I will check Portside apartment.

Thank you, I will check the Heights area.

Isn't this a full sit down?

LOL. As if no one with “well paying jobs” who wants to experience city life lives in Journal Square. Have you considered that some people who want city life also want to embrace living in and giving back to a diverse community? Do you hear yourself?

Amazon lockers or StowFly. Not a lot of locations for the latter though. But first talk to the building.

They’re doing this in neighborhoods with high theft rates. You’ll need to either be home or pass that info to the concierge in a doorman building. Started a little while back. Amazons not even the first to do this.

This is going to become more common. Customers are becoming price sensitive thanks to the economy so they can’t just incorporate the cost of all the theft into the sale price. Something has to give.

Or order elsewhere. But I think most delivery services will be rolling out similar features in the very near future.

I almost feel like PSEG capped the gas that fuels our heating to conserve energy those days. I put my thermostats to 74 and it took all day to heat up my 3 level home. Supplemented with a couple of electric space heaters.

Lol, yes that's true, and I sometimes have to tell tenants to get their conditioners out. But no the the ACs are out. The really stealth heat leak is when people don't actually shut their windows all the way. They close it so that there's no opening at the bottom but very often the sashes are not meeting in the middle and air is blowing through. You have to be sure the two sashes are meeting properly and use the window locks which pull them together. Every fall I have to go around the house checking each and every window to make sure it's actually closed.

What do you call a really cold day? One of my sources said we were at 7°, it's a really cold day in my book and I've lived in the area my whole life.

I assume you have more than one room per floor, how is the heat distributed around?

When I first saw that, I didn't like but then it started GROing on me.

ok thanks for the downvote.

The least I want to think about when trying to get home in a rush hour is what I am about to order in GrubHub

Grove St I guess

I have one also and it’s driving me insane to find out where the drafts are.

Had the same issues! It’s crazy!

“Welcome to Jersey, fuckface!”

You can easily get an apartment in JC for $3k, but not a luxury building with waterfront views.

Is a luxury high rise non-negotiable? Many people prefer the neighborhood historic districts - the two have very different vibes and you need to know your preference first. Also keep in mind that if you have a vehicle, a high rise will charge an additional fee for parking.

Also, Newport is a love it or hate it place - I would not group it with the other neighborhoods you mentioned. It is very disconnected from most of Jersey City and feels like a tall suburbia with city views. On the other hand, people who are city-averse feel better there and if you have an eastern view, that's a plus.

If you are diligent you can absolutely get a downtown apartment for well below that. I had a 1.5 bedroom for $1400 and a moved to a 3 bedroom for 3k. Don't believe people when they insist otherwise.

True, but a worse commute to midtown

LOL 💀

Dine like royalty at the castle

I'm guessing the train is gonna be out of service, so they're making passengers get off there before it heads to the yard?

Try Another Man’s Treasure. A bit pricy, but it’s the best vintage shop in the area that’s not the city.

Very interesting. I had no idea. I should visit more lol

That's actually Hoboken, but for some reason they stop by Grove Street first without opening the doors.

You mentioned window air conditioners. Do you by chance still have them in the windows? Because when people forget to remove them from the windows during the winter season it’s like having huge holes in your walls.

Sorry I assumed "assuming this is real" as implying the text might be fake, you were clearly acting within your rights as a sentient being to assert the Cartesian reality of the situation.
