March 29, 2008. The Kearny Journal reported this week that the Town of Harrison, the County of Hudson, and the redevelopers were steaming ahead with their plans to build a 1440 parking space garage near the Harrison Path Station. In fact, a pile driver was bounding away this week in preparation for concrete slabs. The construction was proceeding despite an Appellate Court ruling which invalidated the taking of the property upon which the proposed parking garage will stand and remanded the cases challenging the redevelopment back to the trial court. The pile drivers however were silenced on Friday as the trial court judge, Maurice Gallipoli, issued an order stopping all work in Harrison's Redevelopment Zone until he makes a final decision in the case.
