The phrase "cry about it" was made for posts like this.

I'm like... 95% sure that's a joke, but sadly these days, you can never be sure

lolwut

Oh yea, definitely. The buildings that still have lead pipes also definitely have a batphone to commissioner gordon's desk. 100%

I used one today! I left it at self checkout!

Loaded up the article to let you know what paragraph, but that quote is gone. Solid editing there without updating the timestamp

From Shoprite. You steal them. Would prefer you don't, since it's nice that they finally brought them back after all this time.

> She says that repeated requests to have window guards were ignored.

Yea, that's a lawsuit

Dunno about the rest, but if you click on the link, that artwork is literally on display on the banner. Are you able to put 2 & 2 together?

We go through this every time this pops up. You're wrong. You're very wrong. You're incredibly fucking wrong. Stop being so dumb and wrong. 1) Many economists in this country are conservative. They espouse that shit because they are perfectly happy and content with coming up with a conclusion and then putting out bullshit to make it work. 2) Economics as a whole is mostly bullshit espoused by people who just want free cocktails and tell people who will give them what they want to hear. 3) It literally works all over the world, you fucking idiot. Go look at what was posted elsewhere in the replies here about how it works all throughout Europe, in that article's case, Austria.

And yes, people in this country are very fucking stupid and would not want to pay a small tax increase in order to ensure that we could have good public housing (which would in turn ease the financial burden for many more and actually allow people to live in an area where they work and not pay 50%+ of their take-home for rent, which would bring up a new group of middle class people, etc. etc. etc). You're correct in that just about no politician would actually try and make peoples' lives better.

You got to that conclusion the completely wrong way, but you at least got one thing right.

They literally do work in huge chunks of the rest of the world.

Perfect outcome.

Bingo

Can't speak to the enforcement of the ABNB laws, but they're on the books and pretty strict. Looking at the 07302 and 07310 zip codes for a hypothetical rental a few weeks from now, it looks like there's about 20 total. Before those laws were passed, you used to see scores, if not hundreds, so it seems they're working.

Lots of ideas, few of which would pass political muster because of where we live, but we could start with mandatory huge chunks of any new building being low-income with strict rent control. Any lot left undeveloped after x years gets eminent domain'd and turned into public housing (looking at you, 111 1st St.)

To the surprise of no one

> worked with developers to build thousands of units of new housing around the PATH as NYC rents continue to skyrocket.

Dunno if you've paid any attention, but Jersey City rents in those buildings aren't any lower than they are in Manhattan.

There are solutions. Build a higher bridge or ban boat traffic that high.

Neither are exceptionally desirable solutions, but they are solutions.

Wow, you're a stupid asshole

Fuck you. "Hold those against us, too" is a bullshit strawman argument. You were informed multiple times how and why this was bad and you're comparing someone trying to rob public land to a dog adoption as if that's the same thing. Go fuck yourself and your business.

Been meaning to check out 902. Guess I never will.

"sensation" is doing a lot of work there

The bottom of the Hudson.

They're all terrible and you're stupid for spending $72,000 a year to rent an apartment anywhere, much less Jersey City

As an alum from the public school system who played football there, Caven Point is significantly better than it used to be. That's a very nice turf, which is way better than the mud it used to be.
