Bijou Properties was designated as the redeveloper for the 1500 Clinton Street project.
They unveiled a proposal last week that would include a new DPW garage, City Hall annex, and mixed-use art and retail project, though those details were removed from the resolution the council okayed last night.

“I can’t support this resolution tonight: I don’t think it solves any problem. I don’t think it helps any investigation and if it were just a neutral statement – ‘let’s transfer this so that we can get to the bottom of this’ – perhaps I would support it, but that’s not what this is,” said 5th Ward Councilman Phil Cohen.
“This is a resolution that questions the integrity of the Hoboken Police Department and their outstanding investigations unit, suggests that there’s conflicts of interest – that they can’t do an adequate job of investigating this – it’s outrageous to even suggest that, there’s no basis for that.”
