sheraton Eatontown and go out to eat in deal
W Hoboken (pretty nice)and go out to eat in Teaneck or Passaic(20-25 min. Drive)
There are a couple properties in the city with plenty of places to eat
There is also an Aloft in Downtown Brooklyn
Also a great restaurant opened up not long ago in Philly

Thanks, these are all great suggestion. The Manhattan vicinity does seem like the best bet but parking there is probably difficult. Hoboken sounds interesting but Ive heard that Hoboken is not the best neighborhood though. How about the The Westin Jersey City, Newport (also a Category 5 right across from Manhattan). Do you know how it compares to any of the other hotels? Also, where do you recommend that we go to eat Moitzai Shabbos, Sunday Morning & Sunday lunch?

Thank you.

You can drive into Boro Park or Jersey City and take a train into the city. Its definitely a lot cheaper than parking in the city.

Or you can take the Staten Island ferry if you want the scenic route.

Anyone know of a way to find out who lives on a given block in Lakewood? There used to be a feature available for Palm Pilots that had a searchable address book for Lakewood. Is there something similar available now?

Works great on Android.

They just updated the app recently making it even easier to search by either name, phone or address.
