many other cultural events that the city is not equipped to host at this time,” said Je- rome Lombardo, chairman of the board for the Upper Main Street Alliance. "Eventually, the park will serve as a con- nector between the city's new cultural arts center and a fully revitalized Main Street." The park will include an am- phitheater for outdoor perfor- mances, grass areas, trellises, seat-walls, benches and street trees and lights that define the perimeter of the park along Warren, Atlantic and State Streets. “The construction of this project represents another important step in the City’s continuing efforts to revitalize the downtown,” said Francis Reiner of DMR Architects, “Without the leadership of the Mayor and Council this project would not have been possible.” In addition to the public open spaces the plan includes increasing parking availability in the area from 63 spots to 93 spots by include both on-street parking and by opening up the Atlantic Street Parking Garage for daily use. n Advance Realty, DeBar to l o Dev . form joint venture partnership HARRISON, NJ — Ad- vance Realty and DeBarto- lo Development, LLC , have formed a joint venture part- nership to develop six build- ings on three blocks within the Riverbend District of Har- rison.
