Put the Waffle House in that stupid parking lot across the street, like right in the middle.

How did you read that comment and decide they were talking about clearing trades vehicles off the street?

Any time something flammable gets banned from a certain spot, it's because that kills people in some form or another.
A lot of these things have wood or plastic roofing, and their ceilings are low.

As someone who loves walking a loop from City Hall down Market to spruce street harbor park, then down to the Moshulu and then back to City Hall via South St, that i95 cap is going to be so nice when it's done.

Oh man, 8th & Market's signage is absolutely garbage. All it needs is some basic line paths to follow, but that's too much to ask for some reason.

Broad Ridge spur of the BSL. Goes from 8th and Market through Chinatown then meets the regular BSL tracks at Fairmount.

4% is absolutely exorbitant, though. Even Amex tops out at 3.3% +$0.10.

RE: Getting to Aldi, is 8th & Market within walking distance for you? You could just catch the Spur up to Fairmount.

Nobody wants xylazine.
It gets used to cut other drugs.
The demand is high enough that people will take the risks of getting something with (potentially too much) xylazine in it.

>I think the issue is way more than the riverline, though.
My frustration about the lack of development is aimed at the people, not the government. NJT did their part to build it...and the people just aren't there for it despite how good it could be. It's why I'm not getting my hopes up for the Camden-Gloucester line.

For fucking years. It has two grocery stores. Trying to find things it actually connects to outside of Trenton and Camden is an exercise in frustration.

Cinnaminson station is literally a breakfast joint and a self-storage unit.
That counts as "built up" to you?

While it's nice to see more trains, NJ really doesn't seem to give a shit about developing around them.
The Riverline's been running for, what? 18 years now? It's still just a random train running through suburbia and you can barely get to anything from it because all the businesses are stacked against 130. There's Riverside's little downtown setup, and that's pretty much it between Trenton and Camden.

Over two years of these workers being remote shows that being in office is performative labor.
There is nothing "brave" about wasting workers' time and money on a commute that was done away with for over two years.

Why are all the charts lately impossible to fucking read for the colorblind?
+10k/20k and -500/-11k might as well be the same color.

Don't paint a rowhome.
Bricks breathe and let some water in and out. When they can't, that water will freeze and destroy the brick.

The 8th & Market Giant is all-in on self checkout registers. Those things are designed to move people.
ACME's self checkouts are your usual "please place item in bagging area" horror story.

Oh man, houses were wired terribly for 50+ years.
My parents' kitchen, dining room, and garage all operate on one breaker.
We found out using the microwave and plugging in an electric stovetop in the garage for a party.
