Real Estate & Home Improvement / Couch Cleaning Advice
« on: October 25, 2016, 12:33:41 PM »
Hi Everyone,

We have a nice couch but it's pretty dirty.  It's microfiber so should be easy to clean.  Do you have any recommendations for a cleaner?  Or do you know of a JH store that rents the cleaning machines? 

Thanks,
Simone

Neighborhood Chat / Inaccurate Subway Commuting Times?
« on: June 07, 2016, 08:52:36 AM »
Recently moved to JH, and find the commute to be much longer than anticipated.  Residents, realtors and even the MTA suggest travel to midtown is 30-40 min but the shortest time has been 45 min.  Wondering what others are experiencing.  Thanks
