Newark is my second favorite city after Jersey City. Newark has turned it self around the past 10 years. new Projects have turned most of the city into a nicer and safer place. Some of those neglected will get renovated this year & the rest in the near future. New Transit Projects like the 2 Light Rail lines are on hold for now , but when the economy picks up again later this year i'm sure they be back. Also some Scrapers were planned for the Downtown , but they were either scraped or put on hold. Cory Booker has lowered the Crime Rate & Brought the city Closer.
