Wait, there are TWO bagpipe guys???

If they get a mural maybe, but no real way to point folks to a place to try and understand their lives specifically. Though it is an interesting concept to try and include, as the reality of our town & recent history

Actually Empty Sky is a great add, a reminder of how we function so intertwined with NYC for folks every day & the impact the tragedy had here

What about the historic site where Councilwoman Amy DeGise’s hit and run occurred?

>On my return commute this evening, I passed a car with the exact make, model and color as this morning's

Unfortunately, if it is the car I have in mind (Subaru Outback?) there is a good chance that there are a ton of the same around here. My neighbors bought one a few years ago, and there are two more just like their (same powder blue color) in the neighborhood. It is (or, was) a very popular car and color combination.

I mean when the power bill is past due they do send it to our city, not NYC. So that seems to be it's ours.

This could also be an interesting way to talk about backfill & the weird rights in that zone. Downtown used to be an island (Hoboken too)! Technically rented from New York by NJ for awhile before becoming fully a part!

No, Elijah's a larper. Paco and Taco were real.

yes

If we want $30m, could probably get there by enforcing/ticketing traffic and parking violations. Don’t need to tear down the museum.

Can't tell, does this version include the square about the developer he was pressured to add by City Hall mid-project? Because that's JC as FUC

The most important question is did you already put up the signs!? Remember, they must be put up at least 48 hours in advance for them to be enforceable.

I've heard it called India Square, Little India, Curry Hill. I've heard these from folks who've owned and lived there for decades, more recent folks (Indian decent & non) as well as in print media/television. Take your pick, we all know what is meant I feel.

Edit: The new-ish banners that went up on light poles in the last few months have "India Square" on them, so maybe that's a vote for it being most official?

Paco and Taco are dead, so not sure about their inclusion in a list of things to see/visit for people to "understand Jersey City" but replace them with Elijah!

No bagpipe guy? And then the other competing worse bagpipe guy?

No "The Hustler"?

No Big Hair Girls?

Exchange place, especially the Katyn memorial (statue of a guy getting stabbed with a bayonet)

Liberty state park, especially the empty sky 9/11 memorial

Ellis island

Ringside bar and White Mana diner

While Hamilton, Van Vorst, and Lincoln parks are great, what makes them so deeply fundamental to JC? What do you learn or see there that roots you in this place & it's people/history?

Taxes went up in jersey city and that gets passed along to renters.

Deep cut on local culture.

exactly. it's not easy to promote safe driving when half the drivers are coming from giant suburban developments and are not interested in the community, just need to get to their job in Manhattan or the construction site in journal square! OUTTA THE WAY!

Good bot

lol here comes another scholar thread on the Pompidou....

No Elijah?

ellis island, both as the entrypoint to the immigration stuff you already mentioned and an excuse to go through liberty state park

riverview park in the heights

Metro Plaza ShopRite on the first Sunday of the month.

How about every single road
