Amen to that.

The golden rule really for any developer is to just break ground ASAP. As soon as it can get done, the better.

Jersey City sometimes baffles me. The city wants to grow, and some projects go up easily, but others, in an area that really needs supply to combat ever rising rents, you'd think they would be for it.

Its nonsense really; the city is ego tripping. Journal Square will rise, and lots is planned for the area. Its time to just accept the change. Its making the area better. Journal Square use to be a dump, and now, it's becoming more vibrant with better architecture, and street life.

A lot of Jersey City use to be a dump. It has changed dramatically.

The three judges rejected the city's claim that a 2012 settlement agreement between the city (under the previous administration) and the developers that paved the way for the proposed high-rise should not be honored because it wrongfully tied the hands of the current council.
This is just bureaucratic bullshit. Like much of everything that goes on with government. IMO, the less government involvement in developments, the better.
