What a shame. A place that should be kept bikedusha where young couples are starting to build a bayis neman biyisroel is being rented out to have tumah going on there. Time to put a stop to this. I see all the time advertisements about these parties

How about some condolences? This article discusses a person’s death -this isn’t the time to discuss the appropriateness of Lake Terrace’s use.
My condolences to the family of the deceased.

#8 Josh…..I have a modest proposal. Perhaps as a remedy to the Bikedusha problem as you’ve so well spoken of, you or a consortium of you and the like-minded should buy Lake Terrace.

To #8 – as horrible as this was, sorry for the family (prayers are with you), other people have the right to exist. You’re beliefs may not be for everyone. There are many different nationalities/religions in Lakewood. We need to respect that, just as we respect yours.

Is that hall allowed to be rented if it’s owned by a yid?

Do they rent out the kitchen?

To the family and friends of this young man, Our prayers are with you and your family. You don’t know how this feels until something happens to your family. Hopefully, you’ll never know the pain.

What kind of nonsense is that? A hall that is used for a concert affects a chassuna seudah that takes place there afterwards? Do you really have no other issues in your life?

Typo – 8 + 2 = 10. What did I post that was SO offensive. I don’t get it. Just saying that there are many people in this area that deserve to be respected, not just the Jewish community.

This is not the time to be discussing the use of the Lake Terrace Hall. A human being has just passed away. Do you have no sympathy?
