On Monday, January 27th, the Newark Central Planning Board approved plans for a 40-unit mixed-use development in Downtown Newark, granting preliminary and final site plan approval, along with multiple variances and waivers.
The development plans proposed adding a new four (4) story building above an existing commercial building, resulting in a five (5) story mixed-use building with forty (40) residential units, a ground floor parking garage, 885 square feet of commercial retail space, a residential lobby, and a partial green roof.
Chris J. Murphy, Esq. led the firm’s successful efforts on behalf of the development team, which included Kirk Mitchell and Dwayne Dancy from AKT Designs LLC, Joseph Mele and Mark Vizzini from Dresdner Robin, and Craig Peregoy from Dynamic Traffic.
