Hackensack transit oriented development report

This report documents a community-based vision to bring transit oriented development to Hackensack. The project focuses on the areas surrounding Hackensack’s two NJ TRANSIT rail stations and its Bus Terminal. Future development around each is anticipated to help anchor the city’s retail core, complementing Hackensack’s recently adopted Rehabilitation Plan and strengthening the relationship of the downtown to the larger city and region. The project team reviewed background information and interviewed private and public sector parties familiar with retail, office and residential real estate markets. Using these resources, the team developed alternative scenarios for specific sites around the three transit nodes.Funding for this report was provided in part by the Transportation and Community and System Preservation Program of the Federal Highway Administration (U.S. Department of Transportation) and the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority, Inc
