As debris rains down, site's future gets clearer
It's not quite clear how much of a downtown there will be, but that's at least what the local politicos are claiming about the development that will be replacing the Garden State Park race track. The dense development will take up to ten years to complete, will feature at least two big box retail spots but also promises to bring a "sense of space" to Cherry Hill. The plan includes space for civic uses and an outwardly facing public square. Transit will also be part of the plan as the developers hope to capitalize on a New Jersey Transit stop adjacent to the property.
To me it sounds like a lot more words than actions are being tossed towards building a real town.
