You Can Weigh In On Westfield's Retail Planning At Forum Thursday
Streetworks Development, which is involved in planning for the Lord & Taylor site, will be part of this discussion on retail and business.
WESTFIELD, NJ — What's the future of retail business in Westfield? Westfield invites residents to the next panel discussion with Streetworks Development about the future of business development in town.
In December, the Town Council designated Streetworks Development LLC, a subsidiary of Hudson’s Bay Company, as the developer for their privately-owned Lord & Taylor properties, as well as for the South Ave and North Avenue train station municipal parking lots and municipal Lot 7 across from the Post Office.
The company was involved in a forum in November about the future of the Lord & Taylor site, but this discussion will focus on retail in general.
