Weather Jersey City May 10, 2008 Provident Clock Tower
The Provident Head Office Clock Tower on bergen Avenue in McGinley Square area shows 1020AM.

After the rain has passed, it is mostly cloudy today in Jersey City. Temperature is in the 60′s. It’s nice outside, a little breezy because of the wind. I took a couple of pictures, the one above is the clock tower of Provident Main Office.

I also had to refuel at my favorite gas station — Ultra Truck Gas. Gas price is $3.49 as of writing. I saw Wonder Bagel and I thought it would be nice to take a picture of it while it is still open. (It closes after lunch I think).

PJP Landfill AMB Property Giant Warehouse

The name of the warehouse? AMB Pulaski Distribution Center. The developer? AMB Property Corporation.

According to the news that I’ve read, PJP Landfill was a garbage dump before, which has been closed for the past 35 years. No wonder it looks like a forbidden forest whenever I drive to 440 or whenever I refuel my car from Ultra-Truck Stop (see letter A on the above photo), one of the cheapest gas stations in Jersey City where I frequent to.

According to the press release of AMB Property Corporation, it has acquired approximately 50 acres of land in JC from Roman Catholic Archidiocese of Newark after two years of negotiations.

…AMB plans to develop an 878,000 square foot, cross-docked facility on the site, AMB Pulaski Distribution Center, to serve the nearby Port of New York and New Jersey, and to apply LEED(TM) Silver Certification standards to its design, construction and operation…

Oh, in case you are wondering, the letter B on the top-most photo is the site where the missing Rabbi Zev Segal was found dead.
