Reply to comment by LordStirling83 in Newark's low voter turnout could hurt Baraka's statewide shot by madsheb
One thing to remember about Phil Murphy. He couldn't make it in his home state of Massachusetts so he had to come down here to finally be successful politically

At most he's probably going to get a county level position. He hasn't done anything to really branch out to other communities other than the areas that keep electing him.

These opening ceremonies be it Olympics or world cup that use unity as a theme are bs especially when it's from host countries with a history of being a divider. I figured someone at BBC saw the theme and was like nope nobody is going to turn in to that we will just wait till the BTS guy lip syncs his song to switch

But at the time Russia wasn't as bad as it is now. If Russia was hosting now it would be a complete uproar worse than Qatar

That place was a nightmare there were multiple violent acts and then at one point they had a security guard in there selling drugs in 2020 and 2021 was the height of bad . It's never a good sign when the city assigns a cop just to sit outside of your place of business.

Reply to Where are all the office workers? by expressdefrost
IDK about downtown but I will say the area around Newark Penn station parking wise Monday through Friday is as busy as pre COVID. Makes me miss 2020/2021 when I could show up half an hour before my start time and get a parking spot. Now I'm back to playing parking wars

Reply to comment by thebruns in 7-Eleven is selling 3 Newark Stores (790 Broad St, 131 Market St, 2 Ferry St) by DrixxYBoat
Of course but it's not as bad as it was in 2020 and 21 they really need light up the park next to 7eleven they have a war memorial that looks like shit from the homeless tossing shit over the fence. The city also need to start forcing these charities to clean up after themselves. There's tons of food containers and piles of clothes in that park almost daily. The lady who's allowed to be live on that corner for years is also a issue.

I work in the area that 7eleven on ferry street was a trip before corporate took it over. They had the old security guard selling drugs there and these nice Mexican ladies had a taco cart near it and they made amazing stuff. They got ran out of there from all the garbage hanging around the 7eleven. It took a few acts of violence and complaints from customers before Newark assigned a cop to that corner and 7eleven corporate came in and cleaned up the store
