Sharing this so others don’t get ripped off. I hired Bayside Masonry & Construction in Jersey City to fix my concrete steps. I paid them $5,500 and the contract says they honor a 10 year guarantee.

The work they did is falling apart. See pictures. They will not reply to text or phone calls for months now, so the 10 year guarantee means nothing. Don’t get screwed like I did!

Just walked by the Dunkin' Donuts between 8th and 7th. Two employees were sitting outside on the fire escape because the air conditioner unit broke inside, so the owner has them working outside and only taking mobile orders. I walked inside for about two minutes just to get a feel for how hot it was in there, and it was completely unworkable. It makes sense that they're sitting outside, but the owner has to close.

Is there a hotline to call about this situation? Should we email Dunkin' Donuts corporate division? A petition? I

Always thought their business was questionable but wanted to be supportive. Once ordered take out on a Sunday afternoon, very reasonable time to order a biscut, they accepted my order and my payment and BOOM showed up and they were closed (at like 1pm and their website said they close at 4pm). Reached out for a refund and was never made whole. Hopefully i can get my $17 back in bankruptcy court.

Where’s the best place to watch the World Cup game tonight as an England fan? Thanks!

Wondering if we are back to normal tomorrow of if a lot of people are still on holiday as part of the 4th of July weekend.

I know it’s a later game but was curious if there’s any places to take my younger kids to see even just the first half (They’re American and Belgium so it’s an exiting game for em) TIA!

It seemed like so much less of a mess from fourth! So now we know lets be more strict with the visiting public .

Hi there! When MetLife has fireworks, is there anywhere in the Hoboken area where you can see them? Or Is it too far away and /or blocked by buildings? Thanks!

This might be the most parking I've ever seen in Hoboken aside from Christmas or Thanksgiving. Guess the checkpoints worked

anyone know what the fireworks are for

That's all

Wasn’t able to catch a lot of the activities today from the ships and flyovers.

Could everyone post their best photos and videos here? Would greatly appreciate it!

Just wanted to say I really appreciate Reddit for keeping everyone in the loop. It's honestly where I get my local updates.

I'm kind of surprised there hasn't been a Nixle alert, especially after yesterday's storm. There is so much damage and trees down, for example, Church Square Park and Stevens Park are both closed off.

Feels like more people should know what's going on from the city but in the meantime THANK YOU to the people here!

How is it driving into town right now? Debating coming back for the fireworks but worries about traffic and viewing by the water. I’d love any input from anyone in town!

After the storm last night I walked over to ShopRite, probably around 9PM, coming up from the south, so I surveyed the areas around 9th and Madison that normally flood and I have to say, it looked perfect. No flooding, barely any puddles. I get that last night was more notable for the wind than the amount of rain, but there was still a ton of rain in a very short period of time.

Is it possible that the flooding mitigation work that’s taken years in that part of town is actually working? I feel like the same storm happening any time in the last 5 years would have resulted in a ton of standing water in this area.

Maybe I’m missing something but seems like a bit of good news!

Did anyone get a good picture or video? TIA
