As the COVID-19 pandemic swept through New Jersey in 2020, it spurred growth in online purchases as people were forced to isolate at home. That, in turn, spiked demand for warehouse space. And warehouses started popping up all over — generating anger and opposition among many New Jersey residents. But it turns out that warehouse developers overestimated demand.

A novel approach to combatting gentrification is working in Kensington

In 2023, J.C. Zerbe, community advocate and acclaimed muralist, welcomed an unusual offer: a spiffy, brand-new space for below-market rent. The offer came from the Kensington Corridor Trust (KCT). Most landlords buy buildings to hold onto them, but KCT buys properties to give them away — rehabbing them and transferring them to community ownership.
