One time I tried for weeks to get a refund when they shut down service at World Trade a few months ago. Their helpful social media person directed me to this website: https://www.panynj.gov/forms/af/port-authority/path-contact-us.html Has anyone ever been successful?
Any particular location people tend to not hate? Just looking for recs based on experiences. Willing to travel. TIA!
Hey guys,
My nephew's birthday is coming up at the end of the month and I was looking to do something fun with them like an activity! I've already done a bunch of research and have some ideas rolling around in my head but I've had a lot of really great success getting suggestions from redditors so just wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions!
He's been to all the big indoor activity places like the Met, MOMA, liberty science center, natural history museum, etc. so looking for something a little more niche!
NJ DMV told me today that I cannot waive my road test because my international (Indian) license do not have a chip on it. My current indian license, renewed last year, doesn't have a chip because government stopped doing the same.
The lady at the DMV said that the US government haven't informed them of this change so they can't waive my road test. I am wondering if the explanation given to me was in fact true because from what I have read/heard this doesn't seem to be true. Wish I was more confrontational but was wondering if anyone of you had a similar experience?
Looking for service done on my bike , any shops with specials or reputable service ?? (Located in heights area)

I’ve given this place so many chances and it keeps on disappointing. Recently got .5 oz of their “best” strand for over $200. Driest bud I’ve ever seen in my life. I hear it crackle the second I press the grinder. I’m frustrated with spending so much money on shitty product. Any recommendations for better bud?

Hi everyone,
My partner and I are searching for housing in Jersey City or nearby, and I’m hoping to get some advice or leads from this community. Here’s what we’re looking for:
We’re responsible tenants with steady incomes and can provide references if needed. I’ve been looking on Zillow and Facebook groups but haven’t had much luck, so I wanted to reach out here for suggestions.
If you know of any listings, landlords, or resources that could help, I’d greatly appreciate it. Feel free to comment or message me directly!
Thank you so much for your help!
Hey! 26M and moved to the area a few months ago. I wanted to meet some skateboarders but haven't ran into anyone. Any skaters on here?
I and my friend are looking for a player or two to play doubles with at Edgewater indoors tennis court. $84/hr is kinda expensive for us so having 1-2 players share the court will help us split the cost.
Kindly DM me if anyone is interested.
Hi everyone, is anyone familiar with the process in approving a new skyscraper.
For some background, I am considering buying a condo on a high floor 40+ and it has a super nice view (which feeds into a the high price on the condo). I was wondering how likely/what sort of process it would take to basically demolish the buildings in front of it and put new high rises which could potentially block our view. Currently there are a few ~10 floor commercial buildings right in front of our building which we clear by a long distance.
Am I over thinking this? Would the city somehow do this? Most of the new high-rises I see being constructed are where there used to be a parking lot, etc but I wonder if the city would do something like this
Does anyone know if they’re going to expand the street sweeping once a week pilot program to all over Jersey city? It started at the beginning of the year so hopefully in January they will?
