So how does it usually work? You first throw a bunch of chairs and then take a pic? Do they give you chairs or you're supposed to bring some with you? Oh, and is it cool if I just repost last week's pic? Sorry, so many questions. I don't want to screw this up.

Painfully obvious in retrospect. Thank you.

Literally just crossed and did exactly this (both ways). 100% the right answer. It's still not "great" but it is pretty okay. Felt comfortable doing it with my child.

Reply to What are my options if someone has been blocking my driveway for almost a full day? by Jersey-City-2468
I think it all comes down to are you blocked in/out? Yes/No. Or are they slightly inconveniencing you whereby you can still get around.
If I was blocked in/out I would have already called. Nothing to think about. If they’re slightly inconveniencing me, I’d just watch and see if it becomes a habit. (That’s just how I would handle it)

Oh no, I’m so sorry to hear that! We’ve had a good experience here for 5 years but maybe we’ve just been lucky. Best of luck wherever you’re headed next.

I live at Windsor too. Moving out soon after a year. They have serious security issues. My apartment was broken into last summer. Management did nothing. Didn’t even warn the other tenants. Someone broke in and stole a car out of the garage a few months ago. I heard someone followed a woman into the building and tried to rob her in the halls way too (this I don’t have proof of, just heard from neighbors). The apartments finishes are extremely cheap (plastic floors, blinds constantly braking). Very happy to see the back of this place next month.

Still, it feels like there's an energized enough community there making cool things happen, if you look for it. Gotta go out of downtown, maybe.

just tracking middle-of-the-road IPCC estimates, the nyc metro area in ~2050 will have the climate of the washington DC area today. our winters will increasingly look like virginia for the rest of our lives.

I said “people” so that would include anyone who takes it.

unless you mean New Yorkers or Newarkers, this is false. The Light Rail has more stops throughout Hudson County.

They like the idea of being a person who lives in a city (“my family back in Ohio think I’m CrAzY for living here!”) while they complain that there’s too many homeless people and the Whole Foods can’t open fast enough.

Don’t bet on it. We had a van parked in the middle of the street for ~5 hours with maybe a ticket. Fire truck came blasting horns and unable to get around and someone had to move their parked car to let the truck around.

You’re a little behind. The arts scene is a shell of what it was 10-15 years ago unfortunately. It’s only going to get smaller as more artists get priced out or just give up and pay the same rent in NYC :/
There are less and less galleries and local artists as poorly planned development continues to price them out. Best you’re going to get is a mural slapped on some new construction to convince people they live in a up and coming arts district.

Not sure what your point is but I’ll still take that over zero traffic direction on this side of the tunnel?
