5 Best Italian Restaurants in Elizabeth, New Jersey that Will Make You Feel Like You’re in Rome

Elizabeth, New Jersey — a city where the rails hum with memory, where the Passaic River bends past brick rowhouses and the scent of garlic and basil drifts through neighborhoods stitched together by generations of newcomers and old souls. Here, the city’s heart beats in the laughter of families at Warinanco Park, in the swirl of languages at Elmora’s corner stores, in the endless parade of flavors that spill from kitchens both grand and humble. Elizabeth is a place where Portuguese, Salvadoran, Dominican, and Italian roots run deep — where every meal is a gathering, every block a crossroads, every story a recipe passed down and remade.

Two hero NYPD detectives rescued a woman in an angel costume who fell onto the subway tracks at a lower Manhattan subway station in the wee hours after Halloween, video shared exclusively with The Post shows.

Detectives Brett Devine and Carmelo Stracuzzi respond after a woman fell onto subway tracks in lower Manhattan on Nov. 1, 2026. Obtained by NY Post “We heard someone yelling that somebody had fallen onto the subway tracks,” Devine, 36, recalled of the incident at the No. 1/2/3 subway station. Devine can be heard in the video asking his partner for a flashlight because he thought it could help them alert any oncoming train operators. “At that point, we ran over and I observed a female lying unconscious on the railbed,” Devine recalled. “She was totally unconscious and I jumped down onto the tracks.” The young woman was perilously close to the electrified third rail, the cops said.

Buying a NYC home now takes nearly 15 years to pay off — but these 5 neighborhoods buck the trend

New Yorkers wondering whether to keep renting or finally take the plunge into homeownership may want to look toward Queens — where buying can pay off in less than three years. In Rego Park, homeowners could come out ahead financially over renting after just 2.8 years, compared with a staggering 14.5 years citywide, according to a new StreetEasy report . And despite stubbornly high mortgage rates , several other neighborhoods across Queens and The Bronx offer buyers a chance to beat renters financially in fewer than five years. Queens neighborhoods offer some of NYC’s shortest timelines for buying a home to become more affordable than renting. Getty Images The findings come as New York City’s housing market faces a growing inventory crunch, with the number of homes for sale falling to its lowest October level since 2017. Across the five boroughs, just 17,496 homes were on the market last month, down 3.1% from a year earlier, according to StreetEasy. The shortage has been particularly punishing for entry-level buyers, with Manhattan’s pipeline of relatively affordable new condos projected to plunge 74% by 2029, as developers increasingly focus on luxury properties. Meanwhile, the median sale price reached $900,000, meaning a buyer putting

NYC meets class size target, but only after state lowers the bar and city changes its math

New York City public schools not only met the state-mandated targets to shrink classes, they surpassed the goal, Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced Friday. Nearly three-quarters of classes across New York City’s public schools are capped at 20 to 25 students, depending on the grade. The city cleared the state’s benchmark for two reasons. First, state lawmakers moved the goal post when they agreed in June to give the city more time to comply with the law, requiring 70% of classes meet the caps this school year instead of the original target of 80%. Additionally, the city made a change in which classes it counted toward class-size compliance. Officials added to the calculation for the first time “cluster” classes in elementary schools — courses like science, art, physical education, and music that are not taught by students’ typical classroom teacher. Without counting cluster classes, 69.5% of classes would have met the caps, schools Chancellor Kamar Samuels said, just shy of the new requirement. Unlike last
