I just want to know what the purchase price of the property is expected to be. It's a pretty normal question when the state takes on a big project. Eminent domain does not mean it's free for the state.

If you are serious about this proposal this is a basic piece of information you need to include.

You still need to stay alert but it isn't by any means a "don't go there" situation.

How much would it cost?

Edit since I'm being downvoted: eminent domain means the owner is paid a fair value for the property.

I just want to know what that number is.

I had a pullover varsity letter jacket thing from Boathouse. Loved that thing.

I agree with you OP, in spirit and principal, but the truth is all of these things are subsidized seven ways. We just won't pull the trigger on having the subsidies extended all the way to all of the people.

It you have decent personal mobility you could do ok in Somerville without a car on most days. It's still Jersey, you'll want to go somewhere car dependent at some point, but you won't NEED it every day.

The traffic on Route 287 between New Brunswick and Somerville/Raritan is obscene.

Check out Somerville. It's not SF (what is?) but it's got some charm, decent food, commuter service to NYC, and a street closed to vehicle traffic with a Yestercades (hourly classic arcade).
