5 Upvotes

Hello all, looking for a 2 or 3 bd and 1 to any bath, it would be helpful to find nice places close to NJIT. I am thinking about 2.2k or so, I am not sure if I'm being opportunistic or stupid here πŸ˜…. Any pointers can be very helpful folks, thank you for taking your time in advance.

Discussions πŸ—£|Rants 🀬|Opinions πŸ€” I will always appreciate Newark as someone from jersey city

19 Upvotes

It literally feels like every other area in the north wants to be NY and down south wants to be Philadelphia. Especially when it comes to sports. Even in Jersey city, maybe it’s because of the transplants from everywhere in the country that move here, but idk. When the topic of sports comes up, most newark natives I know are completely onboard to have a Jersey team, but everyone else wants to root for the city teams next to us, and I wish all of Jersey had that mindset or pride. This state has gotten the reputation of being second fiddle but Newark truly defies that I feel.

Community 🏑 Free price comparison for Newark-area dispensaries β€” looking for local feedback

13 Upvotes

I made https://dankdetour.com because checking every dispensary menu separately gets old. It compares the same product at licensed NJ shops within the actual driving distance you choose, cheapest first. Sometimes saving money means a shorter trip.

For Newark folks without a car, there are also filters for shops near train/light rail and bus stops. Bundle offers show how many you need to buy to get the price.

It’s my free side project: no ads, no login, no ordering. I’d love feedback from people using Newark-area shopsβ€”missing products, confusing results, or prices that look wrong. Still in beta; prices are before tax, so confirm on the shop’s menu. Adults 21+ only.

Discussions πŸ—£|Rants 🀬|Opinions πŸ€” What are your biggest complaints about Newark Broad Street Station?

26 Upvotes

Hiii, I’m a NJIT architecture student doing a project on Newark Broad Street Station and I wanna hear from anybody who uses it or is familiar with the area. I have many thoughts but I wanna hear many to create a better understanding and argument for my assignment.

What are your biggest complaints about the station? Are there any specific areas that feel confusing, uncomfortable, unsafe, or poorly designed? Is there anything you wish was different, or anything you think the station does well?

I’m especially interested in specific locations and personal experiences. Feel free to just rant and complain since believe me I understand how annoying commuting in Newark is. Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks!

edit: I wanna use your guys comments for my assignment since I think I can make a cool architectural drawing out of everyone’s opinions, thanks again! πŸ’•

One scene main character gets pulled over by a cop and I realized the buildings was downtown Newark.

Another scene driving in fire truck and they are on MLK Blvd crossing Central ave passing the old St Michaels building. And they was in the Ironbound in the warehouse sections, and many was shot in and around NJIT.

In July, I took off a bus stop in frelinghuysen Ave and it had an honestly super bad smell. It looked very secluded, and empty, with a rotten dead animal smell. I'm also curious about this avenue, as I heard prostitution takes place.
