Hundreds of apartments slated to replace North Jersey office building

WAYNE — Another North Jersey office building is being reduced to small mountains of demolition debris and misshapen metal. A wrecking crew has begun razing the 126,520-square-foot building at 1655 Valley Road, clearing the 11-acre property to build 275 rental apartments. The housing project, which will include 42 units for low-income families, was planned for six years. The developer is Vivmark Residential, a multibillion-dollar company created through a merger between its predecessor, Equity Residential of Chicago, and AvalonBay Communities Inc. of Arlington, Virginia. Story continues below photo gallery. The combined entity is now the largest owner of apartment homes in the United States, boasting more than 185,000 units, its website says. The Planning Board approved a proposal for the development in February, when AvalonBay Communities was still in control of its design. The apartment complex will be a half-mile north of a 473-unit development constructed by AvalonBay Communities at the site of the former Valley National Bank headquarters. It is across the street from land owned by William Paterson University, where a builder wants to put up 300 units, and it is next to the intended location of a township-sponsored project of 113 units. Tax records show that the property

NJ construction worker in deadly Long Island bridge scaffolding collapse ID’d as brother of Brazilian pol

Authorities have identified the two New Jersey construction workers who plunged into the icy waters off Long Island when a drawbridge scaffolding collapsed Wednesday, leaving one dead and the other still missing.
