LAW & LEGISLATION Developer Scores Legal Victory in Hoboken Residential Project Battle e city of Hoboken experienced a recent setback in its battle against a developer over the proposed construc- tion of two 11-story residential towers on Hoboken’s waterfront. According to e Hudson Reporter, the New Jersey Superior Court Appellate Division ruled in favor of Shipyard Associates’ Monarch develop- ment project. e city had wanted to halt the project, citing that it would infringe on water views, open space, and recreation opportunities. In 2013, Hoboken passed two ordinances that prevented construc- tion on waterfront piers. But the court ruled that the ordinances can’t be applied retroactively to the Monarch project— which had been in the works since 1997— and that it already had received “site-plan approval citing other Municipal Land Use Law and previous court rulings.” Ti anie Fisher, Second Ward Councilwoman, acknowledged in an email to her con- stituents that the appellate ruling may be the last word in the legal battle and that Shipyard (now called Ironstate) have no more barriers in its project going forward. DEVELOPMENT Condo Project Eyed for Philly’s Washington Square A developer is looking to build a 12-story condo tower over Dilworth House in Philadelphia’s Washington Square, Philly.com reported. According to records, John Turchi and his wife Mary applied for two zoning permits that would involve partial demolition of the property in order to build a tower that would rise behind Dilworth House, and contain “a roof deck, balconies, and amenity spaces.” ere had been a previous battle between Turchi, who purchased Dilworth House in 2001, and residents who wanted to pre- serve the property because of its historical value (it had been around since the 1950s); A court ruled in 2015 that the house’s rear wing could be demolished as long as its front section remained intact. ■
