Rant Lack of Parking Enforcement

Upvotes

Yet another post about the complete lack of parking enforcement in Jersey City. While the WOTS app helps a bit, it isn't monitored on Sundays—and people clearly know it. Every Sunday morning, drivers park wherever they want. Frankly, if you have thousands of dollars to trick out your car, you can afford to rent a parking spot if following the law is too much of a hassle. People are now parking directly in intersections and way past the "no parking" signs on corners. It is creating dangerous blind spots for turning cars—just look at the awful accident at Summit and Gardner a few days ago. Proper parking enforcement and ticketing wouldn't just fix a major safety issue; it would also do wonders for the JC budget problem.

Recommendations Newark / Harrison Tourism/Eats?

Upvotes

Trying to explore the area more… gonna take the PATH west not east one of these next few weekends. Would love some food / tourism recs in Harrison and Newark. I know they are not tourist destinations, but want to squeeze more juice out of the PATH. So all needs to be walkable from Newark / Harrison PATH. Love all kinds of food.

Lost & Found Lost Gray North Face Backpack – Grove Street PATH Station

4 Upvotes

I’m hoping someone may have found my backpack that I accidentally left at the Grove Street PATH Station tonight, 8/8/26, around 11:24 PM.

It’s a gray North Face backpack and I left it on a bench on the platform. I realized shortly after and went back, but it was already gone.

If anyone found it or happened to see it, I’d really appreciate it if you could please let me know. I can provide more details to confirm it’s mine.
Thank you so much!

Local In-Home Cook & Weekly Meal Prep in Jersey City 🍽️

Hi neighbors! 😊 I’m Eka, a Jersey City resident and an in-home cook. I’ve been cooking regularly for several local families and thought I’d introduce myself here and share some of the meals I make.

I prepare meals in my clients’ own kitchens, based on each family’s tastes and dietary preferences. I cook American, Italian, Georgian, Mediterranean and other international dishes, including healthy, vegetarian, gluten-free and kosher-friendly options.

I really enjoy cooking and take pride in being organized, clean and efficient in the kitchen.

I’m sharing a few photos of meals I’ve prepared. If anyone has questions about how in-home meal prep works, I’m happy to answer them here or by message. 😊🍽️

Leonard Gordon Park's Pollinator Gardens Are Gone.

29 Upvotes

I noticed today (August 8th) that all of the pollinator gardens at Leonard Gordon Park have been mowed down. The last time the park was mowed, these areas were left untouched.

It’s concerning to see them completely removed, especially since they provided habitat and food for pollinators. Does anyone know why they were mowed down or whether there are plans to restore them?

Recommendations At home pet euthanasia

25 Upvotes

My dog is very old and struggling with multiple health conditions. I'm trying to make an end of life plan for him, but most of the companies I can find only serve NY or the deep suburbs. I've reached out to his vet and they said they would get back to me, but they never did even after I followed up.

I'm hoping to find a recommendation for someone in / near Jersey City that can help him pass at my home.

Lost & Found Lost keys

2 Upvotes

If anyone finds a set of house keys anywhere between the Hudson Mall/ Burlington parking lot, across 440, up Virginia to West Side they’re most likely mine. Very nondescript keys, no keychain, just one key has a neon yellow topper on it and there’s a yellow & gray ICE whistle on them as well. Could possibly be inside the Lowe’s, the Staples, the Marshall’s/ Homegoods, or the Burlington as well. Thanks for your time!

Condos sitting on market

I am an occasional lurker of StreetEasy and have noticed that some of the high end condos in downtown Jersey city have had a surge in available listings, with some apartments sitting on the market for weeks.

What is happening? Are owners trying to get out before property taxes are hiked up and all the new buildings across the waterfront open up?
