Reply to Some interesting and in-depth old films of Newark in this article that you don't often get to delve into... by Nwk_NJ
Good thing they had the foresight and/or narcissism to build streets far wider than was necessary.. turned out well for 4 lane streets.
The streets looked so much classier paved in concrete rather than asphalt.
asphalt is nice for traction in good weather, but it's really shit to look at. It makes eveything look darker and depressing. Very utilitarian. Asphalt-black is not a pleasant color to look at... anywhere at anytime period. Like NO ONE purposely paints anything in that color if their lives depended on it. It sucks donkey-cock.
I can't wait until the era of asphalt finally comes to an end. Give it another couple decades.. i'm sure they'll come up with something less corrosive on the eyes.

It is a relief to see people who are willing to restore and preserve historical architecture rather than demolish everything and build some disgusting obscene building with no landscape typically taking up public space like sidewalks and not giving a f about neighboring classical structures or playgrounds per se

It's anecdotal. I can never count on EWR departures or arrivals being quick, and I only fly United.

As a lifelong Newark resident, I can tell you North of Park Avenue from the park to Roseville Ave. Then north of Springdale Avenue to the East Orange Line.
If you're looking forward more of an urban feel with rowhouses and other "missing middle" Urban architecture, the 6th Avenue corridor in lower Roseville is pretty nice. But you have to be a little Street Smart. It's a transition area between the more Suburban upper Roseville and the inner city central Ward which usually begins at Orange Street and South.

Different airlines pay for priority. Rarely have delays with United.

Newark Airport has real issues other than cosmetic things. It frequently has the worst on time performance.

Yea the same goes for all those neglected former warehouse buildings which would make great residential buildings or mixed use like they did in Industry city in Brooklyn.

So glad this is getting the TLC it's been crying out for for years.
Was sad to see such a beautiful piece of architecture neglected & rotting away for so, so long.

It will look great in the skyline. It will also command attention to itself since it will be away from the main group when seen from the south & east.
Just like Boston's Hancock tower.

> it ushers in a new era for an airport that has historically been regarded as one of the worst in the country
That is if you are rating the airport in a way where you average out the different terminal experiences, which is a bit unfair . If you just pay for the better airlines, Terminal C has always been fine.

Amazing how the broker figured out to use “cute” as a code word to avoid violating fair housing law.

Reply to They impounded my shit today by poete_idris
I am sorry for the huge expense, but not all that sorry to see the city taking illegal parking seriously. People park in places that make it dangerous for you to cross the street, they park in bus stops which fucks up traffic for everyone, and they double park or park in traffic lanes or on the sidewalk or whatever. This city has way too much car bullshit already.
