I think he was talking about 900 broad street. It’s funny he said that because no action as took place on that site yet and the tower got approved same time or before halo towers original design got approved. I honestly don’t think that tower will ever get built, but it would be cool if it did.

Thank you for the share, and I actually remember this proposal now that my memory has been refreshed. Honestly, it’s only a matter of time before Newark is flooded with high density/high rise developments. The amount of property lots available, coupled with property costs and construction, it only makes sense to build up (especially given the demand from the rental market). So, I’m not too worried if a few stellar project proposals, like the Arc Tower or 900 Broad Street, get shot down. Newark really needs as many apartment units it can get online to the market as the demand is almost unreal really. Plus, more downtown residents to the city’s core is always a plus for retail and other economic activities.

True but I would very much want to see the Arc tower break ground.

The Arc tower meeting was an online community meeting and not the official hearing.
