As a taxpayer and a parent, this news is double insults. Even elementary schools are also included in this program
FYI: excessive screen time is associated with a number of health issues, including depression and obesity, and can also have a negative impact on a child's sleep. Screen time can also adversely affect brain development in young children.

I lived up on the hill for years, Weehawken Heights. I loved it, it’s quiet and family friendly, amazing views of the city, and the best public schools in Hudson county. Would have stayed if we could afford a stand-alone house but we just couldn’t make it work.

Did you have any noise issues there?
They have so many negative reviews mentioning thin walls.

How are they with rent increases for lease renewals? I’ve noticed that their advertised prices are usually quite a bit higher than the competition.

Agree with this, lots of Dr’s and offices around the city. The Trinity Place location is right off the WTC PATH. Be prepared to wait some time for an initial appointment with one of the more in demand Dr’s.
Lastly I’d say I like their MyChart software easy booking of appointments and finding other Drs and pretty thorough medical records and communication with your Dr.

I use them too and have been pleasantly surprised how seamless everything is with them.
The downside is they don’t seem to have in-house specialists like some of the larger, more traditional systems do, but it’s fine if you mostly need just primary care.
I wonder why they haven’t expanded to NJ yet.

The dog breed is going to be an issue, every large building people listed and I’m sure you’ve found, will tell you a German Shepard is a restricted breed. You’ll need an exception some will give it to you but it’s a thing. Unless the dog looks enough like a mutt or other breed you can lie on the app.
Apartment size might be an issue. Some of those buildings don’t have 3BRs and some do, but often that’ll put you at $6-7k+. What do you consider a large 2BR? 1200sqft? If so you’ll find some of them, but if you want 1400-1500 that’s hard to find.
You should also check some of the condo buildings because plenty of them have people renting their condos. 88 Morgan, 2 2nd St, etc… you might find a 3BR rental there but likely have to pay a broker fee.
Good luck with your move!

There is a tiny neighborhood (whose name I forget) behind the H.T. entrance, that flooded. Up the hill, not so much.

I never considered fighting games esports because of the poor payouts compared to other genres.

Obnoxious posts get obnoxious responses.

Ha. It doesn’t say that at all. You asked for advice based on parameters that requires one to read the entire post in order to know what you’re looking for.
That’s fine, others can do that. But you should know most people found this obnoxious. I’m sure you’re otherwise a fine person despite your propensity for paralysis by analysis and long winded posts.

There’s a Weil Cornell Primary Care Office at 40 Worth Street in Manhattan (a ~5 minute walk from WTC). Loved ALL of my service and treatment there.
Someone else here also recommended One Medical, I do like One Medical but you don’t get a consistent Physician. I’ve found that the MyChart app is getting to be just as good in terms of being able to reach a doctor/access records/get questions answered.

The part where I said I’m only asking if someone has something jump to mind quickly and only for a building name. I wrote a summary to start so you can read it fast and move on without getting into the detail. Or you could even just ignore it from the title if you don’t have interest in engaging in a thread asking for advice about apartments.

I like Dr Amer Syed. He runs every tests & doesn’t rush during the visit. But he also likes to prescribe the rx to independent pharmacy instead of national chains.

I use One Medical. Been with them for 3 years. Service is $199 yearly. All locations are in NYC but it’s worth it.. if I have to switch to anyone in Jersey City or Hoboken, I’d be f****d

Are you fucking kidding me? They slap us with a giant tax increase, wring their hands that they have old, dilapidated schools, and then turn around and spend $1 million so kids can play video games.
End BOE independence now. It's time to get some technocrats in there to fix this mess.

German Shepard might be an issue as it’s a bigger dog + likely a restricted breed in many buildings. Other than that, you shouldn’t have that difficult of a time finding a place. Just remember that you won’t find a “perfect” place. There will be at least one or two things that won’t meet your requirements and it’s okay! Good luck!
