Rutherford NJ

4 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 4, ISSUE 10 demand, and property values are soaring. With this kind of unprecedented growth, Rutherford is a prime location for all kinds of new development. Further, it’s not just residential. There’s commercial real estate as well, with warehousing and distribution centers generating a great deal of interest in the industrial area. To cite but one example, retail giant Amazon recently built a large distribution warehouse facility in Rutherford. However, the good news aesthetically is that this won’t affect the downtown beautification the Borough of Rutherford is working on, as Nunziato points out. “We have three more developments that are on the table,” he reveals, adding that this will be all, and the Borough of Rutherford will not allow anything farther past its busy transit zone (much railroad activity), which is located at the confluence of Orient Way and Park, Union, and Erie avenues. Bergen Logistics is another big local player, as Nunziato points out. Bergen Logistics is a leading pick/pack and fulfillment warehouse company for electronically-based commerce.
