Newark apartment tenants continue 30-year battle with management

NEWARK — The Pavilion and Colonnade apartments are made up of three towering Newark high -rises known for their stately glass windows with New York City views . The buildings are still striking on the outside even though their glory days are clearly gone. They are close to most things a tenant could want in downtown Newark. You can walk to church or to the park. The train station is a hop, skip and a jump away, and the bus stops out front. The convenience is grand. Residents say it’s not so grand living here when the heat doesn’t work, when the elevators break down, when management doesn’t appear to be fond of tenant organizations speaking up for themselves. And some residents say it seems like its always been this way. You know, mama said there would be days like this, but she didn’t say they’d last 30 years. Over the years, one management company after another has tried to run Pavilion and Colonnade apartments. The latest, Kettler Management of McLean, Va., is the third in eight ye...

What Christchurch could see in a new stadium: international trends in stadium design

Image
WILL HARVIE Last updated 05:00, August 19 2017 Perth Stadium Perth Stadium and precinct should open early next year and includes many innovations in stadium design that are popular in the United States. Many of those trends could be implemented in Christchurch. Many stadium owners are struggling with the same problem. Watching a match or event from home is more comfortable, costs less and takes less effort than trooping off to the ground for a live experience. The response has been broadly similar – make being in the stadium more fun. "We focused from the beginning on building a unique fan experience ," Arthur Blank, owner of the NFL's Atlanta Falcons, said of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium that will open later this month.  Perth is building a $1 billion, 60,000-seat extravaganza that will host  AFL, rugby, league, soccer, cricket and entertainment events when it opens early next year. According to marketers, the stadium is designed for  "fan first" experiences. REA...

Image
Picture of gray death × First overdose case of ‘gray death’ reported in Greenwood Picture of gray death GREENWOOD, Ind. – Johnson County authorities are warning residents about a lethal opioid mix called “gray death” that has been found in Greenwood. Gray death is a new “ drug cocktail ” that looks like concrete, which is where it gets its name. It contains a deadly mix of heroin, fentanyl, the elephant tranquilizer carfentanil , and a synthetic opioid called U-47700. Greenwood police were dispatched to the 1000 block of Coventry Court on March 18 around 8 p.m. A woman was inside an apartment at Polo Run Apartments laying on the floor, unconscious. Medics arrived at the same time the officer did and narcan was used on the woman, identified as Hanna Richard, 19. Brandon DeBlaso, 20, helped officers search the apartment for what Richard might have taken, but nothing was initially found. While medics assisted Richard , officers noticed a young juvenile sitting in a high chair. DeBla...

Mariah Carey Reveals the Story Behind Her Legendary “Heartbreaker” Jeans

It’s funny to think that Mariah Carey’s “Heartbreaker”-video look is almost two decades old, given just how right that late-’ 90s fashion moment seems for now. “We ripped the top of them,” said Carey, who still has the faded jeans. “I hated the way they were so high-waisted. My friend was like, ‘Yo, where did you get those?!’ ” The superstar has plenty more sartorial memories inside the immaculate closet of her three- level Tribeca apartment , which she opened up exclusively for Vogue . And, as you’ll discover, she is not the only one who gets to play dress-up among the many racks: Her adorable 6-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, make an appearance dressed in head-to-toe Balmain—Moroccan in motocross blue jeans , Monroe in olive military shorts —and seem to have just as much fun rummaging through their mother’s wardrobe, which, naturally, includes a sizable and unapologetically glamorous shoe collection in addition to those famous jeans. See Carey give the tour and share her deni...

At least 2 dead as Harvey slams Texas coast, causing floods

KENTWOOD, Mich. (WOOD) — The investigation into the fire that killed two people in a Kentwood apartment Friday morning centers on two questions: What cause the fire and did smoke detectors go off? For most of the residents of the building at Wingate Apartment complex , the first sign of trouble came with a panicked, middle of the night warning. “The window was opened and we heard a woman screaming there is a fire! There is a fire,” said Rachel Dotson-Hackworth, who lives next to the building where the fire happened. Kentwood firefighters arrived in minutes and pulled the victims from the lower level apartment , but it was too late. The victims have been identified as Mary Hopkins, 51 and 61-year-old Edward Newhouse who lived in the apartment together. Investigators are trying to determine the cause of the fire, which started in a bed. One clue may be the smoking habits of one of the victims. “There are several other causes that we need to eliminate, and smoking is one of them,” Kentw...

Wonderful Holiday - Review of Woodmere Serviced Apartments, Nairobi

I recently stayed at Woodmere apartments and truly loved the experience. The hotel staff were extremely courteous and more than willing to provide assistance and recommendations when required. The apartments were maintained to an extremely high standard of cleanliness and were frequently serviced, although not too intrusively. A very safe location of Nairobi, but geographically located close enough to benefit from ease of access to the CBD and other areas of the city. I would recommend this to both the uninitiated of Kenya and also to the more experienced. I will be coming again in the future. Thanks very much to all the staff. This review is the subjective opinion of a TripAdvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC Thanks for staying with us and for taking the time to write such a good review of Woodmere. We try to help our guests in any way we can. Our reception desk is 24/7 and we stand ready to help you get around, and find whatever you need to make your stay a good experience...

As Houston plots a sustainable path forward, it’s leaving this neighborhood behind

Image
Juan Parras gives one hell of a tour of Houston’s east side. He’s charming and funny. Wearing a beret, he strikes an old-world look, like he might lead you to a cafe on a plaza. He doesn’t charge a fee for his services. After all, you’re on a “toxic tour,” and Parras is on a mission. Parras grew up in 1950s West Texas . He remembers segregated schools, the restaurants that wouldn’t serve him, the unpaved roads, and the people who lived closest to the local refinery . Those experiences led him to a career as a social justice advocate . The resident of Houston’s heavily industrial east side has worked in a city housing department , for a union, for a law clinic, and on a campaign that stopped a PVC factory from being built in Louisiana’s “Cancer Alley.” For the last decade, he has served as executive director of Texas Environmental Justice Advocacy Services (better known as t.e.j.a.s.). Part of his work is leading tours past the heaping piles of scrap metal along Houston’s Buffalo Ba...

Zillow Gets Naked | TechCrunch

Image
Online real estate site Zillow today announced that it has acquired Naked Apartments  for $13 million in cash. While the name makes it sound like some kind of kinky cleaning service , it’s actually an apartment rentals platform with a focus on New York City. The acquisition is expected to close in the next few weeks. This marks Zillow’s fifth consumer brand acquisition and the second time it bought a NYC- focused rentals platform . The first was StreetEasy in 2013 — a similar marketplace that helps city dwellers find apartments to rent and buy. “ Naked Apartments is a natural strategic fit with StreetEasy and Zillow Group in New York,” said Susan Daimler, StreetEasy’s  general manager and vice president of Zillow Group New York, in today’s announcement. “We all share the common goal of using data, tools and technology to bring transparency and ease to New York City’s complex real estate landscape .” Naked Apartments launched in 2010 and currently has 13 employees.

San Mateo County bans smoking inside apartments, condos and townhomes

Smoking either tobacco or electronic cigarettes will be prohibited inside apartments , condominiums and townhomes in unincorporated areas of San Mateo County under a ban approved 4-1 Tuesday by the Board of Supervisors. Supervisors Carole Groom and Adrienne Tissier pushed the ordinance, which outlaws smoking inside and around multiple-unit buildings with one or more shared ceilings, floors, walls or ventilation systems. The ordinance also applies to any such buildings owned or leased by the county, regardless of where they are located. Second-hand smoke that wafts between rooms poses a danger to other occupants in the same building, according to county health officials . “We have a responsibility as a county to protect the health of our residents,” Tissier said. Supervisor Don Horsley cast the dissenting vote, echoing the objection expressed by the San Mateo County Association of Realtors that condominiums shouldn’t fall under the ordinance because they are individually owned, n...
