This reminds me when GOP suddenly cares about brown people shooting each other in Chicago when Democrats bring up gun control.

I haven't noticed your objection to planes towing banners and boats displaying lighted billboards.

Welcome to NJ, now keep right except to pass on our highways. Please don’t be like New Yorkers and ignore this law.

Reply to Please explain the weed smell. On the Turnpike driving 70mph. No cars around. Huge weed plume somehow enters my car with the windows closed. Where is it coming from ? How much are they smoking for smell to linger ? by TextEfficient
The massive refinery along exit 13 in Linden is now refining weed for NJ’s dispensaries.

Love me some Crotalus horridus although I give them a wide birth in the pines.

That would require receiving $1 for every time I was asked if I found the missing Russian mobster who went missing in the Pine Barrens during The Sopranos LOL.

If I had $1 for every time someone asked if I saw the Jersey Devil after a walk in the Pine Barrens, I'd be able to afford to buy a house in NJ by now.

Known for generic McMansions, suburban sprawl, excellent public schools and expensive housing prices. Easy access to I-78 and I-287.

Pennsylvania? Your children will grow up driving slow in the left lane of highways unless you teach them "keep right except to pass" LOL.

I got a response back in 15 minutes when I emailed them. They were polite and helpful.

Alexander Shipley, who is the Rahway historian, may be interested in that router.
He doesn't use email much but he is the director of the Merchants & Drovers Tavern Museum on St. Georges Ave. Give him a ring at (732) 381-0441.
Did you know that Rahway was also home to the first lab of inventor Nikolai Tesla? There is a statue of him in front of the Rahway Train Station.

The prison is in Avenel, not Rahway. Everyone from Rahway know that.

I used to deliver the Elizabeth Daily Journal to that block in the 1980s (yes I am OLD!!).

You'd think that PANYNJ would add extra PATH service during the overnight hours during the Holland Tunnel construction project, but they're not, sadly.

This is a great point. Bring a young homeowner was OK, but being an older homeowner as flood damage from storms and high tides increases every year, owning a home near the water may result in many expensive headaches.

Came here to say the same thing. AC may be the only town left along the shore where real estate is affordable for middle class folks.

I experienced the same. I would rush out of the venue and speed across Manhattan to reach the Holland Tunnel before it closed at midnight. Seems like this is not a new development.

Reply to Warren Township by [deleted]
My brother moved to Warren Twp. late last year.
It's mostly composed of McMansions on wooded lots. No sidewalks and no real downtown to speak of if you're interested in those things.
Seems to be a bedroom community with easy access to I-78. O'Bagel has delicious bagels, though.
