I live on Palisade near Christ Hospital and it’s usually pretty easy. Like others have said, certain times are tricky but I have never been totally unable to park.

I also work from home so moving the car for street cleaning during the day is very easy.

I’m also a dog owner. I used to think more trash cans would help, but lately there’s been an absurd amount of household trash being put in cans near me. The trash cans have been disappearing — I guess the city is sick of them getting full and got rid of some 🤔

It’s super frustrating cuz Union City has a zillion trash cans and they’re all well cared for.

I’ve actually found them to be more reasonably priced than DMC, who are based in Bayonne and also do a lot of work around JC.

Also worth mentioning that they fixed my heat this week and they actually found the issue which was different than what PSEG thought it was.

I’ve found PSEG’s repair folks to be so-so.

I’ve had excellent experiences with William J Guarini. https://www.guariniplumbing.com

I really like Okinawa in Hoboken! They deliver in JC.

My office is right off the West Side Highway. I could bike to work SO fast if this existed. 😔

LUXURY CREAMING NEEDS

I will correct to: “every time I’ve gone to Supremo in need of zucchini, they have not had any”

Yeah their meat and produce is the worst! And for some reason, they never have zucchinis.

Totally. I would happily make smaller sidewalks if it meant giving cyclists ample space and maintains road space for parking.

I love this plan.

I like the idea of raising the price of a parking permit and using that money for transit and infrastructure.

I honestly rather deal with the sidewalk cyclists than have all the parking on Palisade taken away. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Yep.

Cyclists scare the crap out of me and my dog when the zoom down the sidewalk on Palisade.

This was a short experiment. They were temporary lanes. I’m not quite sure what ~3 days of having a 2-block bike lane is going prove as an experiment, though. I only know this cuz I chatted with some bike activists who were gathered around there over the weekend.

I live on this block and barely saw it used.

As much as I want cyclists off the sidewalk and I want it to be safer to get around the Heights on a bike, I really don’t want a bike lane for the whole length of Palisade.

I rather see raised crosswalks to prevent speeding and make crossing safer while preserving parking. It’s already difficult to park near my house and paid off-street parking is really difficult to find. When I said this on Twitter, I was immediately yelled at to pay for parking. I have to assume by someone who never tried to find parking to rent in the Heights cuz they’d know it’s pretty damn hard to accomplish.

I saw some at the Whole Foods in Weehawken.
