The construction boom expands to Newark
we’ll see… there’s been a number of highrise proposals lately but only 2 or 3 have been built. 1 Theater Square and the first Shaq Tower are the only ones that come to mind.
And even getting those two off the ground took a really long time.
Update: I’m late but the towers design has been revealed but it appears to be stalled. According to the Newark reddit sub, the tower was waiting on the Aspire grant to continue last time I checked
Link if you want to know more about it, other than this there is an ai video of what it could look like once finished so this is the most recent news we have of it
The thing about these affordable housing requirements in Newark is that they dont work without millions of dollars in government subsidies (Aspire grants) and if they don’t receive them, then the projects until the money is available.
Can’t be financed otherwise.
