INTRODUCTION The Harrison Waterfront Redevelopment Plan represents one of the great opportunities for redevelopment in the State of New Jersey. While many former industrial areas in the State and the nation have undergone revitalization, the Harrison Redevelopment Plan has the potential to be a project of world class scale. The designated redevelopers have submitted plans which call for an array of uses that capitalize on the presence of the Harrison PATH Station and the Passaic River. The Plan seeks to unite the developers’ proposals with a design theme rich in industrial, cultural, and environmental identity. Through exemplary design based on the history and heritage of the Area, the Waterfront Redevelopment Plan will forge a bold new identity for Harrison. None of this could have been achieved were it not for the vision possessed by the Town of Harrison - a vision that has been validated by the interest of seven redevelopers. Together, their proposals will create a vibrant mixed-use, transit-oriented, pedestrian-scale development that will make Harrison a regional destination for years to come.
