The Ribo concert last year was a disgusting display of taaruves with mixed dancing ladies singing along and dancing in front of men in the crowd all that just a few weeks before Roah hashana
ReplyDeleteThis pritzus event was advertised and pushed in all lakewood media and publications
It was not just geared for the frum community but had lots of secular attending dressed inappropriately
Why are they dragging us into this filth
The live stream of adirei on YouTube also exposed people to indecent ads we are mortally bankrupt
DeleteAds on youtube go based on your personal interest and google search, so if I were you, I'd keep quiet!
DeleteNot true youTube puts on random ads regardless of your history and they are prust and not tzznius unless you pay to have no ads.
Deletesadly the roshei yeshiva are not in control of the marketing or know the intricacies of social media and live streaming platforms
The silence from TAG is deafening as they always call out anyone who puts the public in Sakana of undermining what was established at Citifield
Sadly true. The concert wasn’t designed for Lakewood, and shouldn’t be advertised here.
ReplyDeleteWhy is township spending grant money on Patrick Park wasn't the sale of the old basketball court on 4th st to kikar shabbos supposed to pay for a new sports facility at Patrick park
ReplyDelete"The existing trees may cause forest fires...." Thank you for this. I needed a laugh. And duplexes don't catch fires?
ReplyDeleteYou don't seem to understand how forest fires spread. Trees particularly dead ones explode and shoot burning embers everywhere. Duplexes even when they do catch fire rarely spread to the next one. There are fire walls in between them and the fire department usually gets there a lot quicker than to a tree on fire in a forest.
DeleteWhy don't they make Aderim next year at blue claws, have all the Yungerlite on the field?
ReplyDeleteThere's no future development for litvishe anymore in Lakewood all the new big projects are only for chasidim
ReplyDeleteWhat a false statement thats pushed by self hating litvaks. Massachusetts/Chestnut, Cross/Prospect, Prospect/Massachusetts are some of the up and coming that's not for chasidim. Between these there are close to 700 homes planned.
DeleteDo you think if the litvish purchased land in Kiryas Yoel with plans for developments for litvish only, they would be welcomed with open hands?
Deleteab, you’re missing the point. Lakewood is a litvishe town. Built by and for yeshivaleit. In the last few years however greedy developers sold us out to Chasidim who ruined the entire market. Virtually all new developments that went up in the last 5 years were exclusively for Chasidim. They refused to sell to regular Lakewood people. So just because there are some new developments that are not necessarily exclusively for Chasidim, they still control the market. Homes are unaffordable because of them. This is a fact. On the other hand, I’ve never seen Litvaks moving to Linden, KJ or Willamsburg, I wonder why…
Deletereally?! what are the prices? Affordable for litvish?
DeleteThe influx of chasidim started when Stamford meadows was built and no one from Lakewood wanted it. The developer had no choice but decided to try and reach chasidim.
DeletePrices have gone up everywhere. Even areas of Jackson that are exclusive Litvaks, like Brookwood 1/2/3 have doubled in price the last 3 years. Stop making judgements without the facts and math to back it.
Aguda had a project planned in between Monsey and Monroe for the yeshiva oilam and no one was interested. Rabbi Leifer had a project in Staten Island for years, and no one came.
ab knows what he;s saying is lies but apparently feels like he is the tb spokesman so he has to spin it... influx of chasidim started when azb and his friends started going to brooklyn and begging them to buy here so that prices would go up and certain yechidim could make more money. because lakewood went up - in a deliberate way - all surrounding areas naturally went up too. how come no one else ever heard of agudah's plan to build in monroe for "litvish"? sorry. never existed.
DeleteYup, it’s pretty crazy. That developments now are not focused on the non- chasidshe.
DeleteAll of the litvaks Are going to Manchester like sheep. Seriously if I’m gonna move to Baltimore, I may as well pay Baltimore prices.
That's utterly crazy. Those roads are already a parking lot
ReplyDeleteLitvaks in Lakewood are going extinct
ReplyDeleteLakewood becoming the tuna bagel capital of the world!!!
ReplyDelete140 townhouses coming near Jackson Manchester border starting at 600k with basements
ReplyDeleteInformation? Who's the broker and builder?
DeleteMordechai Eichorn
DeleteYou mean the basements are starting at 600k?
ReplyDeleteDon’t forget to thank one guy and his realty group for bringing the chassidim here and destroying the real estate market for everyone.
ReplyDeleteYou got it all wrong it's 600k for the lot.
ReplyDeleteIt was way before Stamford meadows it was Apple street. Advertised and sold exclusively in Brooklyn to chassidim. They jumped the price from 300k to 400k overnight.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all let's define the word a litvak. It does NOT mean somebody who shaves, eats cholev stam stam etc, that is somebody who is MODERN, A REAL LITVAK, ones not shave, le5s his payos grow, says karbonos and tiken chatzos , makpid On tvilas Ezrah, etc etc
ReplyDeletenope
DeleteSome & some.& many in between. It's the attitude & the gait
DeleteIs that it?
DeleteAll the townhouse/ duplexes look like fromm a army base. All cheap crap
ReplyDeleteFunny thing is he is trying to sell to the oilam that this a metzia. 600k in yehupitz. of course a great oilam...
