Kitchen Renovations Completed!
I took these pics a few weeks ago of the completed renovations, and just uploaded them today.
I'm very happy with the condo work, except on how long it took to complete. I have been getting into the spirit of doing my own work on my home, and today did some minor work like adding brass door strikes to my bedroom & bathroom door jams.
Also headed over to the new Home Depot in Jersey City.
These were the directions from their website, using MapQuest:
1 Start out going WEST on NEWARK ST/NEWARK AVE/CR-636 toward CLINTON ST. 0.22
2 NEWARK ST/NEWARK AVE/CR-636 becomes OBSERVER HWY/CR-681. 0.10
3 Turn LEFT onto MONROE ST. 0.05
4 Turn RIGHT onto NEWARK AVE/NEWARK ST/CR-636. 0.12
5 NEWARK AVE/NEWARK ST/CR-636 becomes JERSEY AVE. 0.41
6 Turn RIGHT onto N MARGINAL RD. 0.01
I tried using that, and the whole "right onto Marginal Road" part is bogus (unless someone out there finds this mystical road).
Here's the best way from Hoboken, which took me a solid 35 minutes to figure out, because of how quirky the traffic is around the tunnel:
1. Take Observer Highway (becomes Jersey Ave) to 12th.
2. Make a left on 12th towards the Holland Tunnel.
3. Stay left. The entrance to Home Depot is on the left, right before the tunnel entrance.
Sure, sounds easy now. But I had multiple loops around Newport and criss-crossing the tunnel traffic to finally figure it out. Maybe someone else knows - can you just take Marin to 12th and then make a left on 12th?
Anyhow, enjoy the pics of my new kitchen.
