When you think about “The One,” you think about the love of your life, your soul mate, a person that completes you and someone you can spend the rest of your life with. You don’t really think about an apartment building… or at least I didn’t at first. Until I stepped into “The One.” I […]
Top Fifteen Things to do This Weekend in Jersey City: JC Fridays Edition
There is so much going on this weekend that our calendar is literally overflowing with events. Jersey City is going to be bustling with arts and music and so much more that we had to reduce it all down to a list of Fifteen. Fifteen might seem a bit underwhelming but it’ll give a great […]
Carolyn Light
These days the music industry is so saturated with female artists that sing club anthems, are auto-tuned, wear body suits, and sing about things normal people can’t really relate to… I love Rihanna, but who is this girl that owes you money?! and why are you singing about her? Anyway, I digress. I love pop […]
Let’s Explore: Paulus Hook
I’ve set out on a journey to learn a little more about each neighborhood in Jersey City; its history, architectural details, landmarks and any other interesting anecdotes I come across. Let’s start with Paulus Hook, shall we? When I started asking around for a good resource on the neighborhood, all signs pointed to Diane Kaese, […]
Catherine Haggarty
I first met Catherine a few months ago when I volunteered for the “SeeCleanJC” effort. We bonded while picking up trash and cigarette butts (gross) on a beautiful Sunday morning. She is a super cool, down-to-earth chick that also happens to be an artist, art teacher and athlete. Her story intrigued me and it was […]

“Happiness” at Merseles Studios
Each person during one time or another will experience the utmost of grand happiness and the lowest form of sorrow. In most cases—it can be found that there is more focus on what makes a person depressed as opposed to what makes them happy. Yesterday evening was the opening reception for the Happiness art show: […]
Weekend Getaway: Ramapo Mountain State Forest
As dog-friendly and wonderful as Jersey City living is, sometimes our furry friends need to get out, see the world and stretch their legs a little. Lucky for us, there are plenty of destinations under an hour away that make perfect mini-getaways for canines. First on the list, dog-tested by yours truly, is Ramapo Mountain […]
Pictures by Nabil
I came across Nabil’s Instagram (@nvbilll) feed a little over 6 months ago. At first when I started following him, I had no clue he was a local Jersey City kid (anyone in their early 20’s are kids to me now), I thought he was this huge Morrocain photographer residing in the New York City area. […]
EP Review: Black Wail
Navigating the sea of Jersey City bands has been anything but futile; the problem is there are just too many great bands to cover! Black Wail is all about the riff, the groove and making sure that you are not only listening to their music but you are feeling it as well. Releasing their EP […]
