THE RECORD
North Jersey’s Meadowlands, once home mainly to warehouses and industrial sites, will be getting a new mixed-use redevelopment with two hotels, 500 apartments and retail space in Rutherford.
The New Jersey Meadowlands Commission has approved amendments that Lincoln Equities Group LLC sought to the roughly decade-old redevelopment plan for its Highland Cross project.
Lincoln Equities is ready to proceed with the project, set for 26 acres near the intersection of Routes 17 and 3, said Joel Bergstein, president of the East Rutherford-based real estate firm. The property, a former “brownfield” site, fronts on Veterans Boulevard and is behind the Meadows office complex on Route 17.
Construction is likely to start in about 18 months, Bergstein said.

PJ you sure that the headline shouldn’t read “RIDGEWOOD industrial tract getting 2 hotels, 500 apartments, retail space”
Yes, the only thing northern New Jersey is missing is another 10,000 residents and shoppers.
I think the planning board should be made aware we no longer need the building in ridgewood.
