This site is literally in the middle of nowhere and I'm surprised it's getting built. I like the ambition and scope but I can't help feeling this will ultimately look awkward & alone. I don't see the neighborhood becoming a viable hub or center of business and there isn't enough existing for even a major project like this to change that. 1,800 residences are a lot for one development but in terms of creating a neighborhood, nothing. If they can put 10,000 units adjacent to the station, the prospects begin to become much better... unfortunately I don't think you could find enough people to fill those units (especially if they're luxury buildings demanding relatively high rents). We will see but I definitely hope it works out for the best...

Journal SQ is the hub of the Urban bus network and the PATH , along with numerous small companies , colleges and a growing Arab / Indian community. Its not the middle of nowhere , maybe for a New Yorker who has never left Manhattan...how can you not know how to use the PATH its only 4 lines and 12 stations?
