Galaxy Rising Part Deux

We are going to re-build G-R in the next month or so with up to 20 "front pages" based on this highly successful model. See those various left buttons? Each one opens a "narrowcast" page.

We intend several pages at least to really show off the Galaxy (one for example on nice apartment interiors), also maybe apartments for sale, also certainly the good things about the neighborhood and waterfront. Local development would remain one main focus.

On the post 'Protecting The Palisades: Our Past Posts, And Our New Ones Planned'.

Glad you’re back posting, but not glad to see N. Bergen butchering the Palisades down the road for a Wallgreens plaza!  How unnecessary, and isn’t that a perfectly good recently cleared lot right next door cross from the diner?

On the post 'Protecting The Palisades: Our Past Posts, And Our New Ones Planned'.

Daily posting is due to resume here on 1 June, now that work-related issues (aka that pesky stockmarket) are thankfully receding into history.

But anything that we have outstanding and in the can on the palisades will be posted here in the next few days. Thanks for reading.

On the post 'River Road Problems: This Entire Hillside Is Now Threatened'.

For heaven’s sake, can’t we have SOME areas of trees, vegetation, nature, around us? Must not only those precious things, but another section of our Palisades, which have existed since the dawn of time, be destroyed, in the name of more and more development? Enough already!

On the post 'As Always, We're Curious About The Stock Market: Where Next?'.

The guys say they are not sure why the Democrats have this effect on the market. But Democrats tend to be more fair and balanced and spread the purchasing power around more and they are pro regulation and balancing the budget and pro all sors of research and education. So it seems obvious that the…

Ha ha! Good question! I went looking for an answer but so far no luck. But these two pieces by Earl Rickard make interesting reading:

Tragic Tale of the Normandie…

Part I: Smoke Across the Skyline

Part II: Salvaged in Vain?

On the post 'Pier 88 Again: Ship Burns And Sinks - Right In Front Of Us (Sort Of)'.

Interesting story. Did the French ever get their check?

On the post 'You Could Be Walking This By The Year's End'.

Heads-up on our newsreader feeds - they’re fixed! Working now. Someone finally told us.

On the post 'Around Noon Today: The Attack Carrier Intrepid Returns To Pier 86'.

Thank you Peter for the alert and we’ll be watching. Perhaps you could re-post these shots, but in reverse! Just kidding, we always appreciate the nice shots here.

On the post 'Now Off The Galaxy: Care To Guess What Is It?'.

Thanks for the welcome back below! Just in time for this financial crunch, which is slowing things down again. Thanks a lot, crunch.

On the post 'You Probably Wont See THIS Again In Your Lifetime'.

Welcome back !!!

On the post 'Tonight: Key Hearing On Huge Traffic-Making Jumbo To Our North'.

Good point! Thank you Brian. Will post a report by someone who was there this weekend. Plus there’s the park campaign to be described.

(I’m still in France, cruising one jump ahead of the Tour de France - size of the advance party for this race is amazing. Last night I saw maybe 40-80 cop…

How did the meeting go?

On the post 'And This Very Colorful Maritime Destination Is?'.

No I’m not in Mass, in response to a couple of emails! I really am in south-west France, right now on the Mediterranean coast. After a fast and wonderful drive through the Pyrenees, in the world’s best saloon world for such cruising: a 5-Series BMW. Wheee.

A turbo-diesel, but you’d never know it from the…

On the post 'Can You Identify This Tourism Destination?'.

Half of them are ours if that was the question! We have actually been there.

But they’re older shots with an older camera. I’m now using an 18X zoom and prefer to shoot very early or late in the day.

Almost all of our shots have to be lightened and made more contrasty…

Awesome shots !!!

On the post 'Preserving The Palisades #3: Now Take A Look At The Palisades Themselves'.

Great series of posts Peter.  Agreed, the cliffs really are spectacular, and Palisades Park just to our north is a very welcome bit of land preservation.

On the post 'Development Watch: Former Unilever Research Complex Edgewater'.

No ferry stop approved yet for Edgewater Square. We’ve posted various times on the need, for example here.

Our own take on the southern Edgewater ferry-stop possibilities (though see remark at bottom here) is this:

1) The developer’s project is approved as we have described it, but there’s a lawsuit related to some…

Could you tell me if the Unilever site has a ferry site approved? Thanks, Lisa

On the post 'Breaking News: Yes This Really MIGHT All Become A Park!'.

Extremely well put, Brian, and I must say that the net negative of the PILOT schemes you describe had really eluded me.

We all of us seem to be going through a whole moodshift now all along the north Gold Coast down to Hoboken, and interested in coming together more and throwing some weight.

On the post 'Breaking News: Yes This Really MIGHT All Become A Park!'.

Peter, I would absolutely welcome GR’s help in raising awareness of lack of open space, and in general community-building amenities of “Port Imperial”.  After living here for 2 years (from Hoboken), a lot of things became clear to me about Port Imperial that wasn’t self evident before the move.

First, unlike many value-creating initiatives for…
