Until they repair the Hackensack bridge and better manage the Amtrak - NJT logistics, it will never be a fast and reliable commute. But it will continue to be $$$$

Lived in Montclair (13 miles from NYC on the Montclair Boonton Line) , worked in Union Sq for 12 years. Was a 12-15 minute walk to the train. NJT train was invariably late. Would leave my house at 7:10 and walk to the station, for a 7:26 train. Arrive 5 to 10 minutes early. Chill, get on the train and arrive close to 8:30 on any given day. Walk or sub it to Union Sq. Arrive at my desk anywhere between 8:45 and 9:00am. Train traffic into Penn is always unpredictable and congested.

You can also hit the Campbell Apartment in Grand Central Terminal-- has a very cool vibe, kind of like a speakeasy. Entrance on Vanderbilt on the east side near 42nd St.

Great contribution and post. I'm retirement age, and I would rather croak than retire to Florida.

There used to be one in Morristown on South St., near the green, but not sure that it survived COVID.

I always give a slight pause when taking a handful of meds or supplements. Pro Tip: swish them around in your mouth with some water before trying to swallow them so they don't stick together in your throat by trusting saliva alone.
