This is quite big news for Newark. I'm still waiting for the JC style boom to come. Newark is vastly, I repeat, vastly underrated and arguably has the most potential of any NJ city. Its time will come!

There are some things going for it now though. Teachers Village, and over by NJIT and the university where I attended, Rutgers Newark, a new bio building u/c and dorms along with a recreational center.
do you really believe it's underrated? I'm not arguing with you - I'm just curious why you think that? I'd love to hear your thoughts...

When I look at Newark, it seems to have really poorly constructed buildings (with the exception of a few of the DT skyscrapers), a confusing city layout, not a lot of green areas or parks, heavily polluted areas, and it's still fairly expensive....

again, not arguing, I'd just like to hear the argument for....seems like everywhere else is booming in metro NYC and Newark is kind of in a holding pattern
