They’re building a substation for the PATH

This lot is shaped like a slice of pie.

They should disguise the new powerhouse as a giant slice of pie. It could be the largest public art piece project in the city.

After all, it’s in the Powerhouse Arts District. Why not have a powerhouse that’s also art? It could become recognizable as a symbol of Jersey City, similar to the Colgate Clock or the Peachoid water tower in Gaffney, South Carolina.

The Port Authority is probably going to spend an obscene amount of money on this new structure anyway. They might as well do something interesting with it.

A pizza pie would be cool. Let the public on top and make pepperoni seats.

I would vote Underwood for mayor at this point.

Or make a building like the flat iron. It’ll look better
