The June 28, 2019 Morristown Green article, “Miracle or Monstrosity? Morristown Residents Sound Off on M Station,” covered a June 27 community discussion about the “M Station” office development in Morristown, proposed by Riker Danzig client SJP Properties. Described as “standing-room-only” and “lively,” the public workshop gave residents an opportunity for an in-depth look at the redevelopment proposal, which would replace the Midtown Shopping Center strip mall with an office/retail project that will include a 48-foot wide street scape and public plazas as well as two office buildings with retail/office space.
While some residents expressed concern that the project would take away long-time affordable eating establishments and threaten the small town feel of Morristown that “we love,” the article pointed to the “unprecedented effort” SJP Properties will make to help relocate displaced businesses.
The project would also incorporate a roundabout at the Morris/Spring Street intersection to resolve a longstanding traffic bottleneck. For more comments from businesspeople and residents at the workshop, read the complete article at M Station Workshop.
