When I was at JCMC emergency department we had multiple people come in who got struck at that very intersection! Couple bicyclists and a pedestrian, different days.
ETA: I was only there for a couple weeks so you can only imagine how often it must happen

Would be cool to have a map

That one is pretty bad indeed. I'd also add Marin/Columbus and Marin/Gangemi to the list. It's ridiculous that pedestrians fear for their lives while crossing a street.

Agreed, but will likely never happen.

I reached out asking for improvements to Thomas Gangemi with Marin and was told the intersection was fine. They can't even change the traffic lights to include an arrow.

Everyone in this sub is so miserable. How is it nosy? OP isn’t asking us to help identity a neighborly squabble. It was a large scale response that probably worried/alarmed plenty of people

It's more trafficked now on Jersey, but it was very bad and still a problem before they reworked Grand St. That part is better now, the rest, not so much

Super cheap but some of the hairdressers are pretty bad at haircut, so you get what you pay for.

Also worth mentioning that they fixed my heat this week and they actually found the issue which was different than what PSEG thought it was.
I’ve found PSEG’s repair folks to be so-so.

This intersection only existed as is when the bridge was finished like two years ago

These are mostly out of town drivers. Only solution is NYC style traffic cams and live law enforcement.

Reply to JFK Blvd pedestrian safety by gigiwasabi_jc
Here’s a list of “safety improvements” coming to Kennedy between Sip and Bergen near JSQ but is still vague and what I find insane is it appears the Bergen Ave two-way bike lane is being extended just 100ft, stopping a half block short of the entrance to the PATH station.

Wallington or Linden/Rahway for Polish food (Tatra Haus in Wallington is my fave)
Ironbound/Kearny/North Arlington for Portuguese food (Texeira’s Bakery and Cafe Mauro are good options since you’re vegetarian)
Mitsuwa marketplace in Edgewater for Japanese

Small and seemless living close to transit option for young tech workers (hipsters) who don’t really have anything better to do with their money.

if you’re a runner Sam AM has a run club on wednesdays. I’ve met a lot of people through classes at local gyms too.

Reply to comment by JourneymanHunt in Weekly Theme - House Plants, show us what you got growing indoors! by JourneymanHunt
Well, part of the reason it didn't work was that you couldn't post pictures in the comments until very recently! I participate in very similar threads in forums all over the internet, they would get very negative feedback if everybody posted on the exact same topic in different threads.
Some of these threads are decades old with thousands of comments, like on a craftsman website where the thread is "what did you do today". All you have to do to comment on somebody's comment is quote or partially quote the post that you're referring to.
