If someone really wants to know, I would research The Record archives March 6 - 8, 2014.  There's a good chance that more information can be found.

I think all the big projects planned for downtown Hackensack are going to involve similar pile driving.  The base geology is the base.

Thanks for the photo and mini-drawing, I zoomed it to examine.  Looks like the lobby is on the corner, followed by a small office (unsure if that is the building mgmt office, or an office available for rent), then retail which is not very deep, and then the parking garage.

Based on the car symbols, it also looks like the parking garage's entry driveway is to Main Street, or is it just that the garage structure is there, with no storefront?  The pic is too fuzzy, can't tell.  Neither of those options are good, especially the first option. If someone knows the answer, please provide.

I only see 8 stories, what happened to 14?

I really think this is an excellent project, but in this case the Zoning or Planning Board did not do a good job steering the developer, tweeking this site plan. There are things that could have been done better.

That's interesting.  And where was HUMC when the city needed a partner for the trolley-bus that ran Main, Anderson, Prospect, and Essex ?  That could have made the difference in making it economically viable.  And with better mass-transit, there would be less employees looking for parking spaces at HUMC.  Isnt that their biggest problem ?

These are newer storm drains that were advocated by environmental groups.  Back in the day, as they say, nobody cared about fish habitat being polluted.

Monitor lizard.  And he's even monitoring the traffic for Iggy.

Have they invested the big bucks to replace the old elevator, with the pull gate ?

Throwing her lover under the bus.  Secrecy means nothing when $2m is on the line.  How convenient.  And what will Salkin's wife say about all of that.
