Dunkin Donuts and McDomalds in Englewood on palisade ave open!!!
Also, 4West diner in Englewood and Kerasotes showplace 14 movie theater in Secaucus open!!!!!

Parkview pharmacy on Queen Anne road is open

Englewood Diner on Engle St in Englewood. But you have to wait outside due to capacity/fire code.

Wendys in bergenfield and the seafood place on teaneck rd.by popeyes was open too.

Any gas stations open? Don't mind driving a bit.

Gas stations open in Teaneck at Teaneck Road and Puffin Way, and Teaneck Road and State Street.

Any word on when residential power will be restored?

CVS on Washington Ave in Tenafly is open.

Victoria's on Queen Anne Rd. & De Graw Ave. They let you charge your cell, if you eat there, just ask nicely!!

Anyone knows if the UPS or USPS is open?

Thanks for the list but I find it infuriating that the majority of Teaneck residents are without power but places like the Kosher Experience and Amazing Savings are lit up like Christmas trees. We are now being told we may be without power until November 9th.

Victors is open but still, what about the rwsidents?

It is infuriating that President Obama placed a congratulatory call to the president of PSEG for his tremendous efforts in restoring power to Newark. The President or at least our givernor, our state assemblyman or our mayor should question why those of us in areas unaffected by flooding have no power, our children have no school and PSEG is not at work in the area.

i think all PSEG crew members are working on those most affected area.. so that they can get all glory.. we are not hard hit area.. so we dont count as a priority..

Yes janu, those guys are overworked and overtired and risking electric shock just for the glory of it all. Oy.

I care more about getting more gas stations open around Teaneck than getting power restored.

If you see any PSEG crews in Teaneck post pictures of them. The city officials with whom I have spoken are not getting any response from PSEG. This is not rocket science. The city cleared the trees. Now PSEG needs to replace the wires. In the rest of the world this takes a hours not days. Power 50 or 51 out of 52 weeks a year is a third world joke, not something I expect of a $20billion utillity. By the way, the hours are not "unheard of." PSEG tripped over itself rushing to file claims with Utility Board over the costs for Sandy before they reportted earnings this morning. They let everyone in Trenton know what they are doing so they can raise rates as soon as possible.

I HAVE NOT SEEN ONE SINGLE PSE&G TRUCK/ VAN IN SITE!!! TREES AND TRANSFORMERS ARE STILL SITTING ON HOUSES!!!! I MAY NOT HAVE A GENERATOR BUT I NEED GAS IN MY CAR TOO SO THAT I CAN GO IN THE HEAT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE AND PERHAPS BE ABLE TO GO TO WORK!!!!

Target in Hackensack is open (including the grocery store).

Hi! I just came up from West New York on a NJ Transit Bus, where a majority of that town did lose its power. I stayed at my daughters dads house over night. I have to tell you on the ride up...a good portion of North Bergen (twice the size of Teaneck), all of Guttenburg, a good portion of Fairview, Ridgefield, the entire Village of Ridgefield Park, and Bogota ARE STILL IN THE DARK. 85% of Teaneck's power HAS BEEN RESTORED!! Relax people!! Are you folks aware of what the people in South Jersey are facing?!?!?! Be grateful, you have homes to go to!! I never in my life heard such whiny people over such BS!! SHAME ON YOU!!! Be grateful for what you have! Thank God for what you have! PSEG have workers that are people, like you and me, they are doing what they can as fast as they can, they need to eat, go to the bathroom, and sleep like you and I. Stop your whining!! I wish there was a way, that I didn't get emails of notifications from the Patch when all I see all these whiny comments. SHIT! I'd rather get spam. SHAME ON YOU.

Lisa: i agree 100 percent!! Look at the pictures of the Shore. Very very sad. Now people (who obvioulsy can go online!!) are whining about no power! I know its bad, I am out too BUT there are some bigger problems here. PSEG doesnt care about our little town but at least we are not DEAD or having houses washed into the Ocean!
Be calm people!!

Of course, you can say that other people have it worse. They absolutely do. But that has nothing to do with PSEG. I drove past the GCPlaza and there were tens of trucks in the parking lot with an equal amount of workers standing around. Now it could be that they were taking a break -- i would have liked to wait around and see. There have been very few PSEG trucks in teaneck. I drove around this morning and my area has not been touched by clean up crews from the town (it appears) or PSEG (for sure). I dont think there is a great conspiracy -- but i think from a business point of view -- we should get more from a company that knows that this is one of the issues it must face in doing business. As someone said, rates wont go DOWN after this -- and in essence -- there is really no where else to go. (PSEG provides the service -- even if you "Get it" from sone one else).

Taipei Noodle house and Veggie Heaven were open last night, thamk goodness!

Just found out that it's not just a matter of fixing the downed wires in most of teaneck...apparently the power substation or whatever it is near the Rhoda Center was severely damaged and many crucial pieces need to be replaced. So clearly the PSE&G people are not fixing wires because theres no power to send through them in some places so their efforts are worth more elsewhere. It's going to be another week before most of teaneck gets power. At this point, complaining is useless. Be thankful for what you have and try to find family or friends to stay with if possible. Also people who work in Teaneck and elsewhere with no power can apply for disaster unemployment aid. Obviously it's not going to make up for all of the financial loss but it's better than nothing...

Teaneck town ship manager should be fired......... there are trees (trees that should not even be allowed in a town like Teaneck) on the street... no power for the residents... dedicated (Ghost) crews from the power company....... The town offices are closed..... REALLY...... Who is in charge.... who is taking care of the town business? Teaneck Local Government is joke......

Let us start a protest....... how about 6PM this evening at the municipal building......

MP where did you find out that information? If its true its a crime that there has been no communication to the township residents of this issue. Two days ago a Teaneck councilman emailed many residents that pseg said 3 to 6 days - if it's now another 7 or more, it would be helpful to know so that we can plan accordingly. Where is the leadership in this town - where is the effective communication? Yes NJ was hit hard, yes many towns have been hit harder, yes we (including myself have no power) - yes pseg is working hard - this all does not excuse ineffective and inconsistent and under reported information from our town

I will use my mother's often used quote: "Thank God it's as good as it is..."
Power will be restored. Life will resume. In the meantime, chillax.

MP - how did you get an update on the status of the substation on Palisade Avenue and Colonial Court? That substation supplies power to roughly 5,000 Tenaeck residents. It is due for an upgrade, but got stuck in red tape, I do not know if it was approved.

I have not received a single communication--official or otherwise--throughout this entire debacle. I just moved to Teaneck from another NNJ town where the communication was plentiful and ongoing, both on a regular basis and particularly in a crisis. As taxpayers, that's something we should expect and demand from our elected officials. Teaneck's town officials have failed woefully in their duty to communicate with its taxpayers/citizens. Beyond that, it's appalling that they are unable to work with PSEG to get our town's service restored in some kind of a reasonable timeframe.

Our elected officials should be communicating with PSE&G and then communicating with us. Its their job. If they fail us they should be replaced.

I am reading these comments and just sad for all of us. I know it is hard and we are frustrated but I agree, at least most of our homes and lives were spared. I have 2 young children and my husband and I are trying to make the best of a bad situation, but we are grateful that we have a town to go to at all. It will be ok for us but so much harder for many other families who have lost everything, including loved ones. I will be praying for us all and for all of your familes.

Who is claiming 85 percent of Teaneck is restored? I would like to know where that came from.

And there is NO ACTIVITY at the rhodda center substation.

K: according to Tee Smyth & company we should be grateful that we are alive and just sit tight and be marry......

This is a Township embarrassment...our officials should all be replaced,,They failed us...,how many times must I have no power during a storm....I have not even seen a PSEG truck yet..NOT 1...Total Chaos...

A friend of mine works for PSE&G and told me that this is part of the problem in Teaneck...

Dear Zad,
You tell 'em!!!
This particular blog (see above) was started because it was supposed to be where those in Teaneck could let others in Teaneck share and post what was open for business in our area....not a BASHING FEST, as its become.
Where is the gratitude? We have homes, still!
As Zad put it: "Seriously take a step back from your constant barrage of negativity and look at the situation through unbiased eyes." As well as JML's comment, "but we are grateful that we have a town to go to at all. It will be ok for us but so much harder for many other families who have lost everything, including loved ones. I will be praying for us all and for all of your familes."
As far as ZIZI, then MOVE!!!!
For MOST of the other comments: nasty, negative comments!!
SHOW SOME GRATITUDE IN THAT ATTITUDE - FOLKS!!!!
YOU SEE THIS CRAP, NOAH?

Gas station on river rd & cedar lane open, long lineup of cars & people with containers.

Cedar Lane business district power largely restored this afternoon, officials say. More: http://teaneck.patch.com/articles/sections-of-teaneck-could-see-power-restored-within-hours

Lisa B. - I completely agree with you. Yes, we have no power and it's awful but I know PSEG is doing its best to restore power to us all. My brother has been working for sanitation around the clock in NYC where he works. Today his garage was sent to Rockaway Beach, NY......there were lines of people, like you and I, waiting for a free warm meal (that literally can last for 3 years.) They have nothing. So it is hard to here negativity when oddly our town has had WORST effects from smaller storms and aside from power loss and some downed trees we are still in great shape. When we all have power, we will resume with our regular lives but our beaches and so many towns will have a long road before they are able to get there. I can deal without power for a time, not saying its easy.....But I am just grateful my home still stands and most of our homes as well. Negativity breeds negativity.

@Tee Smyth - love your positive outlook! You rock.

I have been following PSEG Tweets for days and they haven't said sh.t about what's going on and why. They know as h about social media as they do about and prompt courteous service. Even under normal situations they have you waiting all day for a service call. TIme for some early retirement for those not up for the job.

Here's the latest power outage info released this morning: http://patch.com/A-zptj. A new estimated timeframe for Teaneck has been released by the governor's office.

I am a woman born and raised in Teaneck (656 Kent Ave.). Born in 1959, attending Emerson Elementary School, Bryant 6th grade, Thomas Jefferson Jr. High School, and Teaneck High School (class of 1977), I lived in Teaneck until 1979 until I moved to West New York for work, and eventually moving out of state in 1980 after marriage. Teaneck has always remained ever so lovingly remembered in my mind and though now in Houston, Texas (work), I still think of Teaneck as home. I want you all to know that all of you are in the forefront of my prayers. Nothing in the world could ever change the way I feel about NJ, Bergen County, and especially Teaneck. Although I am retired on Medicare disability and my finances are very limited, as soon as my next Medicare check comes in (EOM), I will send what I can to help out as much as I can. Please know there are other Jerseyites down here, even some from Bergen County, who are praying for you too. God bless and help every single one of you.

Queen Anne Wine & Spirit Emporium is open with and all the other businesses in the Queen Anne Rd, DeGraw Ave businness district, Julio's, Papa John's, CVS, Ludwigs, all the Deli's etc.

Anyone know if there is power on the east end of Cedar Lane -- around Grange Road / Queen Anne Road?

Thanks!

Three Star! had a warm fresh raisin bagel there yesterday!! great to have you back!!

Just spoke with a PSE&G rep. They advised that the area north of Cedar Lane aand east of the tracks wwill have power restored some time today.

Nothing yet in that area George - hope you are right

Cedar Lane diner is open. Limited menu right now, but expect to be fully stocked with food on Monday. Also, Great Wall Kitchen (Chinese food) and Papa John's on Queen Anne opposite CVS just up from DeGraw are open.

dunkin donuts on cedar lane now open

sitting in whole foods recharging & getting warm...

this pioneer gig stinks!

Power came back 6:50 Mon nite east of the tracks, north of Cedar Lane, south of Route 4 (Teaneck High area). Country Club area still out.

Gas lines are rapidly evaporating.

Drove from Teaneck to Weehawkeen this morning. Few to no cars on line at most gas stations we passed.
