Passaic County files eminent domain lawsuit over $106M project

Two weeks after breaking ground on a $106.4 million government complex in Paterson, Passaic County went to court to secure a 242-square-foot strip of neighboring property after it was unable to reach a deal with the owner. The county filed an eminent domain lawsuit seeking temporary use of the neighboring land for two years to access the construction site. The county offered $5,600 to use 241.9 square feet of a commercial property at 332-344 Main St. for two years but could not reach an agreement with its owner, Empire Package LLC, said a complaint filed Oct. 27 in state Superior Court. Story continues below photo gallery. The property borders the former Passaic County Jail site at 11 Marshall St., where a six-story office building and parking garage are planned. The county had the land appraised in September by Wade Appraisal LLC of Metuchen. The firm valued it at $115 per square foot and used a 10% annual rental rate to calculate the cost of the two-year easement. That came to $5,564, with no additional damages assessed for the rest of the property. The county set its offer at $5,600 and sent it by mail Sept. 25, with another copy delivered

Inside Designer Nicholas Lewin’s Timeless Nova Scotia Home

Residential designer Nicholas Lewin of Spencer Lewin Inc. takes us inside his home in Chester, Nova Scotia, a sailing paradise known for its beautiful architecture and shorelines. Inspired by vernacular architecture, Nicholas favours timeless design. “I don’t like it when ego intrudes into architecture and things look dated in 10 years,” he says. On his quirky lot, two connected buildings work together: the 600-square-foot main house has an open-concept kitchen and living space, designed around how people actually live. “Being able to witness the chef in the kitchen is critical,” he says. The second building holds his office and TV room, while a pool house includes a gym, sauna and second ensuite bedroom for guests.

Arlington volleyball sweep Monroe-Woodbury, punch ticket to regionals

CROSS RIVER - It's been a week to remember for Arlington volleyball. On Saturday, the Admirals broke a drought for the program, winning the school's first Section 1 Class AAA championship in 15 years in dramatic fashion. Arlington avenged early-season losses to John Jay with a thrilling four-set victory to capture the sectional crown. Just four days later, the Admirals were back on the court. The results were the same in the end, just a little less stressful this time. Controlling momentum from the opening serve, Arlington grabbed a convincing three-set sweep over Section 9's Monroe-Woodbury in the New York State Class AAA subregional at John Jay-Cross River on Wednesday afternoon. It's been a dream week inside of a dream season for the Admirals, who are making sure to cherish the moments and achievements along the way. "It means the world to me. These girls are my best friends, I say it all the time," senior Amelia Giorgi said after the game when asked about the emotions of the past two victories.

Bidding wars for Long Island homes are so brutal, even all-cash buyers are getting burned

Frank DiMaio had the cash, a signed contract and $230,000 sitting in escrow. He still lost the house he wanted to buy. The orthopedic surgeon, who recently hung up his scalpel after four decades, spent much of this year trying to swap the Old Brookville estate he and his wife have called home for about 25 years for something smaller on Long Island’s North Shore. Instead, the couple got a front-row seat to the most cutthroat housing scrum in the country. “I’ve never experienced anything like this,” DiMaio told The Post. Long Island has become the hardest place in America to buy a home, with Redfin repeatedly ranking Nassau and Suffolk counties as the nation’s strongest seller’s market even as most big metros tilt toward buyers. Bloomberg via Getty Images He’s got plenty of company. Redfin has crowned Nassau and Suffolk counties the strongest seller’s market in America again and again, most recently clocking roughly 36% fewer sellers than buyers. Across most of the country, the pendulum has swung the other way, with 39 of the nation’s 50 biggest metros now favoring house hunters. On Long Island , nobody seems to have gotten the memo. The DiMaios thought they’d scored
