Construction Starts for Downtown MXD

By Eric Peterson | Updated on April 07, 2008

WEST ORANGE, NJ-Work is set to start this week for Edison Village, a downtown mixed-use redevelopment on 21 acres along Charles and West Main streets in this city’s southwest corner. Developer Prism Capital Partners, an Englewood, NJ-based group headed by Eugene Diaz and Edwin Cohen, has slated a ceremonial groundbreaking for Thursday to kick off the project.

And the initial phase of the three-part redevelopment involves turning the historic Thomas Edison Battery Building into a combination of residences and retail. When completed, the phase will bring some 310 residential units to market in a combination of loft condos, townhomes, flats and penthouses, according to Prism officials. The retail component will total 18,000 sf, and the project is being developed to garner LEED certification.
