Nutley Community Preservation Partnership

Site Plan Approved for 71 Apartments on River Road

At an recent meeting, the Nutley Planning Board granted approval of a site plan for 65 River Road consisting of a 71-unit multi-housing complex. The property sits between the Sleepy Hollow and Gateway developments. The property lies within a former industrial site.

Consisting of four buildings, the proposed fourth building, or "Building 4," would require a variance for rear-yard setback. Because the lot is irregularly shaped, the developer is claiming a hardship.
