Gentrification will happen it just made a pitstop in Harrison first but once all these luxury buildings are finished around Newark Penn its going to pick up.

He walked up to a cop car and asked to use their cellphone. Nobody is going to fall for that cop or civilian should have pointed him to one those free kiosks that are replacing the payphones

See I know a person that live in the ironbound for years who pretty much say the current administration running the city doesn't appreciate the ironbound district except only when it's time for votes. But the same person also tells me in the 30 years they've lived in this area the iron bound takes care of itself

It could make sense if there was the proper fire suppression devices installed in case one of these batteries blew up at these sites

Reply to With an absentee corporate landlord, Upper Manhattan tenants unite to demand repairs by natekrinsky
To me if the tenants can make a case that the building owner is absentee and it can pass muster with a court. The building should then become a co-op with a board and everything that takes ownership.

Bill spaeda whole bit is he disagrees with everything the Left likes if the left switched and started wanting what the right wanted. I would bet money he would switch his opinion

The liquor authority is in bed with restaurants in this state. We have tons of great breweries in this state and the liquor authority does everything possible to make this state unappealing for them

Well apparently from the downvotes I'm getting most people on this subreddit think the world's going to be a bicycle one.

As someone who is in Newark on a daily basis I would rather we be a governor less state than see Ras Baraka as governor. The man is only mayor because he kisses up to the poorer mostly black wards and he doesn't do much for the city as a whole he's been riding the investments and connections made by Cory Booker . The ironbound section takes care of themselves and the few times he's been there for events he's been booed.

Every time I have walked in that park nobody on a bike or running obeys the traffic light so you can cross and the douches who think it's the tour de France are the worst

If they make it wider I would hope they have half a brain and example the weight bearing aspect as well
Jimmy_kong253 t1_jaqglgg wrote
If you have a opportunity to make it wider then go for. Because eventually if the Democrats and environmentist plans come to reality we all are going to be all electric in the future. So you can have your earth saving benefits well also being realistic about the fact that traffic is going to always happen hence why the BQE should be wider.

Reply to comment by Polo1985 in $4.6M In Air Conditioning Upgrades Coming For Newark Penn Station by waynesmith22
I mean so far since I'm here everyday I've seen them power wash the front building and clean tiles and they're real hell bent on these benches to the point of obsession. You have peeling paint once you get up on the platform you have giant cracks and raised areas on them. As far as the air conditioning goes the only benefit to me is you wont have a smelly homeless person standing in front of the mobile air conditioners that is horrific
Jimmy_kong253 t1_jam9wx2 wrote
Give me a break so far this renovation looks like a joke. Right now they are replacing the brown doors on the platform with silver doors.
