I think it's very clear you haven't used the lift this post refers to.

You must be talking about 16th Street west of Coles Street

> Path isn’t Jersey City. It’s port authority.

That's a big problem, and one of the things holding us back.

This is not true. Landlords are going to charge the most they can, regardless of their own costs. Raising their costs isn't necessarily raising the rent. Not building more housing because of NIMBYism is what raises the rents -- also in the whole metro area, not just in JC alone.

Individual accountability is dying. Because folks blame the victim instead of the person who caused the problem.

I would certainly look into Washington Heights or something like that, yeah

You are absolutely blaming the victim. If the criminals weren't stealing or if they were locked in a cell, there would be no problem. The victim did not cause this.

How about at 46th Street near Madison Avenue? It's 20 minutes away from PATH...

A place at Madison Avenue and 46th Street is a 20 minute walk to PATH and that would get me to pay $3500 for a 1 bedroom.

> I'm planning on moving to JC to save some money on rent for the summer.

This is a bad idea. JC has the highest rents in the country.

It's definitely in-character for the JC police to refuse to do police work. We still haven't fired the chief, so we officially approve of their performance, or lack of it.

What you see is that we aren't building enough. The prices would be even higher if we were building less housing.

Everything, the public transit here is fucking top notch. The location is stellar. Easy to get inland OR to NYC.

OP is the biggest NIMBY of them all. Just resist, OP is trying to raise our rents.

You make a good point for some 75 floor highrises south of the park.

In Jersey City, there will never be a building that casts a shadow southward. OP doesn't know what they're talking about, what the Tropic of Cancer is, or how shadows work.

Alright, moron. Explain how a shadow can be cast on the south side of a building in Jersey City, when the sun will never be north of the building. I'll go get the popcorn.

In reality, the shadow from that building will be cast west, north, and east. But never south.

But none of that matters, because we all know you probably live next to this lot and are just a NIMBY who wants everyone else's rent to go up even higher, just so you can continue to look at an old decrepit steel mill.

Sell the car, don't move it.

Do you know how shadows work?

On Earth, north of the Tropic of Cancer, you will never have a solar shadow cast on the south side of a building.

That's completely asinine, just because there isn't any clear way outside from the WTC PATH station, and it's almost certainly designed that way on purpose.

But anyway, I wouldn't want to get dressed again after exiting the train, I'd really prefer to do that at home. :-)

Sorry, I mean "with skates or a bicycle or scooter"

I seriously doubt WTC is okay with you skating to the door that goes outside, and there is no elevator that goes outside from PATH, or at least not that I've found yet, and there isn't any other way to get across the river aside from ferries.

To and from Pier 76 is a good skate, with paved trails all the way there from WTC. Not sure how to exit the PATH station to the street though, this is a constant battle

Easier to delete/ignore an email than to get you off the phone.

They're not going to do jack shit.

Why didn't you just buy them last week?

It's a dollar store, not an upscale late-V-day supplier
