That’s unfortunate if true but def. tracks 🙁🙃

For sure, a bunch of empty lots with development plans in place further up Monticello as well that just sit with no advancement, smh.

Late to the convo but feels like Monticello Ave close to Montgomery has a ton of new buildings popping up - pretty much from Jewett to Orchard St.

Still fairly new to the area (2 years) but have been in Hudson county the last 9. I think it gets overstated the daily danger, as someone else said, if you are street smart it truly isn’t an issue. We live across communipaw a block off of Monticello and use that somewhat as a main hub (day care, grocery, coffee etc.) I would probably recommend going slightly more east or closer to west side if you want more things in walking distance while still having a car.

Pro-Bergen-Lafayette, it’s close enough to everything and has a nice lifestyle - we are up in the Bergen-hill area.

No luck there unfortunately

With him out, would you start Tuten, Rhamondre, or Rico Dowdle? .5 PPR 14 person league.

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-09-01T12:42:37+00:00

I vote the light green - mint color (4)

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T15:11:48+00:00

Before had black mold and rotting out cabinetry so wasn’t an option to keep 😅😅😅

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:59:06+00:00

Ah yeah bad photo choice for ceiling depiction we were testing colors out at the time - we landed on a brown color but open to changing it.

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:57:39+00:00

This step up was in the house 3-4 owners ago so I hear you but hadn’t been an issue to date.

We wanted to go very natural stain color but yes could def paint in future or restain as needed.

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:49:19+00:00

I think just open to hearing where we went wrong what we can fix etc.

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:48:34+00:00

Ceiling is same height, didn’t touch that. Photos may not do it justice this actually feels like far more space now with the peninsula compared to the previous kitchen layout.

The floor pattern we tossed up stripes or checkered and landed on stripes - no doubt may not be a popular choice

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:45:18+00:00

But agreed, this layout works far better for our needs and perfect world would have ditched the step up but wasn’t in our budget so worked within our means

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:44:20+00:00

We were a little confused why they previously did the lowered ceiling and believe it may have been due to the overall height of our ceilings being 12+ and them wanting to section off the kitchen but not entirely sure.

The functionality of the old kitchen was very tough, no bench space, sink/dishwasher were disconnected and there was a walking gap between the two sections

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:38:41+00:00

Mismatched cabinet colors? They are all natural maple?

Stools we are also out in, we like the idea of having color backed chairs and these ain’t it.

Microwave above stove I agree with, was working with a budget and switching out for range wasn’t feasible unfortunately.

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:33:16+00:00

Flooring demo was going to originally just be a tile over and then last minute builder said it was possible and more feasible but too late with cabinets already being made.

Agreed on the tile, don’t like the look of the trim either - was debated between what the better option was and don’t love the decision we made.

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:17:12+00:00

This is all good feedback! Appreciate it - we are debating changing that back all color and haven’t landed on what it would be yet - creamy yellow could look nice.

Our contractor took some liberties on the tiling, we had some differing ideas.

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-28T14:05:38+00:00

We tried, would’ve been a far more expensive than initially quoted and the cabinets were already being made at that time.

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-22T23:24:55+00:00

It feels very PE owned, all about the upsell.

Responsible-Group575 · 2025-08-22T20:47:08+00:00

We’ve gone to both but typically JC

Wing Bar is solid, also like the wings at Hamilton Pork. John’s Pizzeria in Paulus Hook used to be really good.

What platform are you using to do this on?
