This spot, for some unknown reason is where your car will fill with a disgusting stench known as The Jersey Smell. Whatever produces this god-awful odor also makes a very strange green haze in the sky right near the Pulaski Skyway, and if you take the time to look for it, you'll notice that the green haze is the EXACT same color as the license plates for NJ.
