"Owner and founder Cliff Mills draws from his West African roots and fuses them with Mexican classics like tacos, burritos and quesadillas. The popular truck, which for the five years has been parked outside 761 Elizabeth Avenue (near Weequahic Park), also touts savory stir frys, crunchy fried fish and shrimp baskets, rich crab cakes and vegan options."

Sad cause the neighbors and historic nerds were trying to save it before the fire happened

I get the feeling that once 777 McCarter is open and considerably rented out, that Gateway will follow suit and extend its hours -- or at least the demand will increasingly be there for it

I still observe slightly more food trucks and farmers markets during the summer months

Nah, they’ve all been gone since the pandemic. There used to be a steak escape in front of gateway.

Not that I know of, but there is a public meeting on Saturday afternoon at the Newark Museum where the team behind the renovation is supposed to give an update https://www.eventbrite.com/e/harriet-tubman-square-park-renovations-public-meeting-tickets-518232897547

The concourse should be open to the public from 6am-7pm now so you shouldn’t need to “sneak in” at this point

Potentially dumb question, but are they getting rid of the George Washington Statue at the park?

I was never a fan of the design but I’m glad it’s finally going up. Can’t wait to see the final product

It’s been really cool watching the Tubman monument come together. Today they made a big update — she’s standing!

Sadly no zone call for this meeting, this is a hands on experience to help the developer meet the undying standards of James street association. But a meeting with the group itself would be cool to have once a month

I'd be so down to join. Will this be our first official meetup... including the OG's from WiredNY?
But Tuesday at noon... damn, that's tough. Tuesday 1/31 or 2/7? Can we do a zoom call?

Every restaurant / food place outside ironbound and food carts is dog shit.
Newark is one big food desert

I would really like to make this, but I have a work meeting I can't get out of next Tuesday at around the same time :(

Yeah I just downloaded the app to my spare iPhone and was able to get in. No idea if it's an Android thing or if I should reinstall the android app.
Seeing that this place is already gatekept to the public is a bummer and it honestly just took the wind out of my sails.

I don’t remember how, I did this a while ago. But if you open the app, on the top right should have a 🔒 symbol. Touch it in front of the Onyx Lounge door and it should unlock. Since you said you have access. Hopefully this helps

Where in the app do you verify you're a tenant? I should have access but I have no idea where to find it.
I've had the app downloaded to my phone for months now and I alr have an account
>Dude, why would you post this here? Some employee at any of the Gateways can show this to Onyx and dealing with them, they’ll make security stricter.
Lose-lose situation

Also, to get in the Onyx Lounge, you need to verify you’re a tenant on the BetterSpaces app to unlock the door.
I have an office in 1 Gateway, but I don’t give a shit who walks through. Just giving you a heads up .

Minus the stabbing scene, or kidnapping scene..or other unnecessary story beats-
