The city is working with developers to update a redevelopment study for the former Wheatena property and come up with a new timeline for the 130-unit project.
Redevelopment Agency Attorney Frank Regan provided a report to commissioners during their meeting earlier this month and said an amended redevelopment agreement, with a revised timeline, should be completed in 30 to 60 days.
Early this year, developers Matzel & Mumford concluded the 130-unit Carriage Park at Rahway was “economically infeasible” at this time but were still committed to it.
The Union County Performing Arts Center recently added two shows that you might consider a little more high profile than usual: Popular ’90s band Rusted Root on May 21 and comedian Brad Garrett (the brother from Everybody Loves Raymond) on June 13. What do you think? An improvement?
If I remember correctly, the six million dollar renovation of the UCPAC was needed to bring in "world class entertainment". I do not think Brad Garrett and Rusted Root fall into that category.
I'm not sure if it's an improvement for the venue or a sad commentary on what's happened to the careers of those performers.
I'm not a fan of Rusted Root's music, but at least the UCPAC has booked an act that wasn't playing gigs in 1960.
you have a point..it is good to have an assortment of entertainment
