It is Sunday, the 14th of December, and I have decided to meet with another resident of Newark to get his feelings about our town. Daniel Mendez is a young professional engineer who works in New York and moved to Newark about three years ago. Mendez feels that Newark is closer to where he works in Manhattan than where he used to live in Parsipanny. He feels that from a transportation stand point Newark is just as convenient as other New Jersey towns bordering the Hudson River, but more affordable. Mendez also likes the fact that he is closer to his girlfriend, a "hot British nurse named Beverly" who bartends on the side, and who lives in Elizabeth.
Daniel feels that the night life and its cultural segments, compared to other New Jersey cities are very specific. There is either Latin or Portuguese venues or the regular American , young hip-hop club who caters to big club spenders and VIPs no matter what they wear or carry. (Adego Grill) Of course, he also feels that the night life does not offer what New York offers. However, he says what Newark lacks in resources it makes up in simplicity. What it offers is straight forward and there are not to many factors involved.
Mendez says that he visits the Newark museum, the public libraries, New Jersey Performing Arts Center where he saw The Producers, and the new Prudential Center where he routes for the Devil's hockey team and attends concerts.
