Dear Editor:
The developer of the brownstones proposed for Weehawken’s waterfront has approvals to build them via one of two plans. The first plan is good. The second plan, which includes a road in front of them, is better.
The “Friends of the Weehawken Waterfront” lost a lawsuit to try to block construction of Plan A. They said they wanted a road in front of the brownstones. Thanks to Mayor Turner, we got some land from the state, which enables the developer to put in the road. The developer agreed, even though he was free to build the first plan. This is Plan B, which has been endorsed by the Weehawken Environmental Committee.
It is incomprehensible to me that “Friends” is now suing to block Plan B, which means that the developer is free to build Plan A instead.
The only conclusion I can come to is, the “Friends” really don’t want to see anything built. This second lawsuit is a tragedy for Weehawken.
