From WCBS Newsradio

MAPLEWOOD, N.J. (CBSNewYork) – TheSuper Bowl is coming to the 

Meadowlands in six months and some area homeowners have a plan to cash in.

Nearly 400,000 visitors are expected to descend on New Jersey 

during Super Bowl week, WCBS 880′s Peter Haskell reported.

With 90,000 hotel rooms in New York City, some people 

are considering renting their homes out for the big event.

There are already dozens of options available on websites like 

EventHomes.com, Haskell reported.

Maplewood resident Mary Conway decided to give it a shot and 

has listed her four-bedroom Colonial home for $3,000 a night.

MEMORIAL PARK RIVER WALL REPLACEMENT BEGINS

Work has begun on a project to replace many of the walls along the Rahway River extension that runs through Memorial Park, much of the damage dating back to Hurricane Irene.

Township Engineer Thomas Malavasia told Maplewoodian.com via email that the project will take 90 days and cost $289,000, but will be paid for through Federal Emergency Management Agency grants that cover costs up to $323,314.

Malavasi told us the work will affect about one-third of the walls along the river, while also paying to clean up 700 feet of the banks, 740 feet of new foundations for the walls, and 800 square feet of walls that will be replaced or reconstructed.

Bravo to the township for reaching out to the the federal government for this much needed funding.

Upon completion, hopefully they will look like this:
