the times DOES have this odd fascination with the place, don't they? at least once a year, they have some piece (in the Metro section) about what a hopeless hellhole it is. and it IS bad.

Maybe the desolation fills a craving for authenticity that New Yorkers have now that they've gentrified everything from the sewers up.

But if you want to come to the next Jersey City FAP (if there ever is one), the PATH is really easy to get to. If you live along the L, you just take it to 14th and 6th Ave, and the PATH is right there in the station. Takes like 10 minutes to get here from there.
JC is ok - it looks kind of like parts of Brooklyn. The area I live in (which is the "desirable" area now) is a mix of Cuban restaurants, Pakistani groceries, and gentry-fried cafes and clothing boutiques.
There's no music venue or bookstore or record shop to speak of, which sucks. Hoboken (also on the PATH) is right next door and has Tunes for records (which is somewhat meh) and Maxwell's, and there's a couple of book shops. It's already pretty much maxed out as far as redevelopment goes. I kind of hope Jersey City will be able to maintain more of a balance, if that's possible.

I remember R. Stevie Moore and his hat. I remember the Montclair Book Center, still the best book store I've ever been to, shame they got rid of the comic book dept though.
My sister lives in Jersey City and sells CDs to Tunes.
My first job was in Morristown, at Trukmann's Reprographics or something.
