If qdon'tpullout gave it an 8 out of 10, then... I give it 9 months!

I lived in the neighborhood for a year pretty recently and agree with most of the above statements.

There are some new shops and cafes on Communipaw that have opened in the last couple years, which is a step in the right direction but there are still quite a few vacant storefronts and no proper grocery store in the neighborhood. 99 Ranch is the closest thing.

While living there, I left my car in the park and ride lot with no issues. The lot is patrolled and well lit, but smash and grabs are still a risk. It's best to leave your car interior completely empty and free of clutter to make it less of a target.

I never felt unsafe in the neighborhood even late at night, but I can understand why some people wouldn't feel safe there because some blocks can feel desolate and rundown, especially around that big abandoned warehouse. But that is quickly changing with all the new construction.

Great, thanks! Some I’m using but some I have t heard of. Will check them out.

Damn, the developer must’ve looked at Xanadu and thought it just wasn’t bland enough.

What would you say is the most interesting skyscraper in JC?

My thoughts:

• The complex of towers at the Beacon has the most distinctive silhouette, especially with the dramatic setbacks of 100 Clifton Place.
• 101 Hudson is interesting as kind of an art deco revival building, but it doesn't really stand out in the skyline despite being a 40+ story building.
• 30 Hudson is the nicest modernist glass box building, but it's not really unique because its basically a scaled down version of International Financial Centre in Hong Kong, which was designed by the same firm around the same time period.
• The Ellipse probably has the most daring design of any of the newer towers.
• If the tower designed by Rem Koolhaas at 111 First St. had actually been built as proposed in 2006, I think it would've been fairly notable as an early example of the Jenga-style tower fad.

My sister has been using the same teacher through guitar bar for three years.

Will check it out … thanks. They have a cool location by that Ziggy grafitti !

Have you had experience with them? Or know anyone who has? I was considering them but torn between them and metropolis downtown

The comment wasn’t deleted. He was blocked.

Which still not a huge deal but it is hella irritating when you’re participating in a discussion and someone replies to you, then blocks you, and you can’t respond.

But. Life goes on.

Eh it happens. It’s Reddit.

> I personally believe we should try to act like neighbors here instead of Internet assholes.

Getting upset someone deleted their wrong comment before you can comeback and make a snark reply is being an internet asshole

No it says " deleted".

They are great for lessons

This is precisely correct. You cannot call a private towing company to pull someone's car from the street even if they're blocking your driveway.

You would be correct if we were talking about cat pictures, but this sub is the closest thing we have to a decent online community for our real life community, and I personally believe we should try to act like neighbors here instead of Internet assholes.

Kinda don’t like they don’t let you choose a stylist while booking an appointment. Also, haven’t heard great things about them but ig only ppl in the price range for $20 here.

Hahaha thanks.

Ah, I guess I don't get blocked very often, I guess I was naive to believe it when it said "deleted". That's fascinating anyway that someone would block me after they posted incorrect information and insulted me!

>The municipal parking lot is very well lit (too well, it's bright as day) and is patrolled 24/7.

That's *not* a municipal parking lot. It is a NJ Transit Park and Ride Lot. Also, the best deal in town for those with cars who don't want to pay exorbitant prices to park, though location might not be entirely convenient for those in DTJC if you need access to your vehicle all that often.

He charges $25 including tip.

Lol no. You just walk in and pray he has time for you.

Dipped in the ugly pond. It's called progress in other neighborhoods. There must have been a meeting for it at some point where 2 cheerleaders attended and was proclaimed as an asset to the neighborhood that the community just loved!

I see it fine. You were likely just blocked.

I’m having a hard time find them on the web. Do you have link to a page or a address or anything?
