This marks Paterson’s first project approved under the Aspire program

TRENTON, N.J. (November 6, 2025) – Last week, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) Board approved tax credit awards under the Aspire Program to a residential project in Paterson and a commercial project in Secaucus. The two awards represent a collective investment of $93.1 million.

“Under Governor Murphy’s leadership, the Aspire Program continues to advance New Jersey’s broader economic development strategy by addressing critical financing gaps and supporting projects that strengthen communities and drive inclusive growth,” said NJEDA Chief Executive Officer Tim Sullivan. “Through meaningful investments in Paterson and Secaucus, today’s approvals expand access to housing, create good jobs, and build more resilient communities that will spur economic vitality for generations.”

The Carroll Street Houses Project, the proposed development in Paterson, will include the rehabilitation of 88 fully affordable residential rental units across 10, two-story buildings. The rehabilitation of the units also includes Project-Based Section 8 contracts for rent subsidies. The redevelopment will also consist of exterior building and interior common area upgrades, as well as the replacement of kitchens, bathrooms, and flooring. This project is Paterson’s first approval under the Aspire program.

Rising Dove Carroll Street Houses, LLC (RDCSH), a co-applicant, will also provide a number of services to residents, including housing assistance and referral services, employment assistance, computer classes, case management, and assistance with food programs.

Carroll Street Houses was approved for an award of up to 85 percent of the project cost, not to exceed $36.6 million. This project is also supported by Low-Income Housing Tax Credits through the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency.

“Today’s approval of the Carroll Street Houses project under the NJEDA Aspire Program marks a major milestone for Paterson. This investment will revitalize fully affordable homes, create opportunities for our residents, and provide essential services that strengthen our community,” said Andre Sayegh, Mayor of Paterson. “I’m proud that Paterson is taking a leadership role in building resilient, inclusive neighborhoods that benefit families for generations to come.”

Meadowlands Logistics Center, LLC was approved for an award of up to 50 percent of the total project cost, not to exceed $56.5 million for the development of a modern warehouse facility in Secaucus. The warehouse will include a 40-foot clear ceiling height, 232 trailer parking spaces, 96 loading docks with capacity for an additional 89 docks if needed, four drive-in entrances, 570 parking spaces, and integrated office space. Planned uses for the development include warehouse operations, light industrial manufacturing, logistics and distribution, cold storage, import and export port services, e-commerce fulfillment, and a data center. The project will also include community amenities such as a public walking trail, a scenic overlook with dedicated parking, expanded sidewalks, and a bus shelter to enhance accessibility.

The property, located at 100 Paterson Plank Road, is identified on the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP)’s Known Contaminated Site List. Under the recently amended Aspire Program Rules, the development qualifies as an eligible warehouse project, meaning the project is comprised of industrial space that is predominantly used for warehouse distribution or fulfillment centers for which the developer incurs eligible project cost of at least $10 million in environmental remediation costs.

“Today’s approval of the Meadowlands Logistics Center under the NJEDA Aspire Program represents a new era of growth for Secaucus,” said Michael Gonnelli, Mayor of Secaucus. “This investment will not only create jobs and drive economic growth, but also enhance our community with new walking trails and improved public spaces. I’m proud that Secaucus continues to lead the way in developing modern facilities that support both our economy and our families.”

Aspire is a place-based economic development program created under the New Jersey Economic Recovery Act of 2020 (ERA) to support mixed-use, transit-oriented development with tax credits to commercial and residential real estate development projects that have financing gaps. All residential Aspire projects must include at least 20 percent affordable housing. As a performance-based program, projects must certify that all commitments established at time of approval have been met before receiving their first disbursement of tax credits.

Food banks face capacity strain as SNAP benefits crisis looms and NJ schools close this week

TRENTON, N.J. (November 3, 2025) – The New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) announced today it is providing $900,000 in funding to support the State’s six Emergency Feeding Organizations as they face increased demand due to the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits crisis caused by the ongoing government shutdown. Approximately 813,000 New Jerseyans, including 340,000 children, rely on SNAP benefits.

The funding comes at a critical time when all 568 school districts close on Thursday and Friday for the annual New Jersey Education Association (NJEA) Conference. 60 school districts are closed the entire week and nearly 150 more are closed Tuesday and/or Wednesday as well. While the shutdown does not affect school meals, such as breakfast and lunch, like it does SNAP benefits, children only receive those meals if schools are open. The school closures, compounded with the SNAP benefits crisis, put hundreds of thousands of children at risk of food insecurity. More than 533,000 children are enrolled in the free or reduced school meals program across the state.

“Across New Jersey, hundreds of thousands of families are grappling with the fallout of the Trump Administration’s unprecedented failure to fully and consistently fund SNAP during the federal government shutdown. In some cases, school breakfast and lunch may be the only meals of the day for a child facing food insecurity. As SNAP benefits remain suspended and schools across the state close this week, families will be turning to food banks for help,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “This infusion of funding from the NJEDA will help food banks remain open and stocked. No one should go hungry in New Jersey.”

“The SNAP benefits crisis coupled with school closures this week presents an all-hands-on deck situation. As a member of the Governor’s Task Force on the Federal Suspension of SNAP Benefits, the NJEDA is proud to join the Administration’s whole-of-government approach to support our food banks and facilitate the access of families to food,” said NJEDA Chief Executive Officer Tim Sullivan. “Government cannot face this challenge alone and I urge the private sector and philanthropic entities to join our efforts to ensure no child goes hungry.”

“This support comes at a critical moment as households face the harmful loss of November SNAP benefits compounded by school closures where many children would normally receive breakfast and lunch. It is inhumane and simply unacceptable that in the United States of America our children are going hungry and seniors and those with disabilities don’t know where their next meal may come from,” said NJ Human Services Commissioner Sarah Adelman. “New Jersey’s food banks and their community partners are working diligently to provide extra food to families as demand is surging statewide, but they need additional financial support. Anyone who is able to donate time or resources in this moment of need are encouraged to visit their community food bank website.”

The Emergency Feeding Organizations are receiving the following funding:

Community Food Bank of New Jersey – $477,000
Food Bank of South Jersey – $135,000
Fulfill Monmouth & Ocean – $135,000
Mercer Street Friends Food Bank – $99,000
Norwescap – $27,000
Southern Regional Food Distribution Center – $27,000

“Combatting food insecurity isn’t just a matter of meeting basic needs, it’s about building vibrant communities where all families and children have the opportunity to succeed,” said NJEDA Chief Economic Security Officer Tara Colton. “During this extraordinary time, the NJEDA is committed to supporting food pantries across the state so that families have access to groceries and kids who aren’t in school this week won’t go hungry.”

“The Murphy administration remains steadfast in its commitment to combat food insecurity, and with hundreds of thousands of children currently at risk of missing meals, our fight is in overdrive,” said Executive Director of the New Jersey Office of the Food Security Advocate Mark Dinglasan. “I appreciate the NJEDA’s quick response to this emerging crisis and stand ready to support New Jersey’s food banks as they navigate this unique situation.”

The funding comes from the Fiscal Year 2022 state budget, which appropriated funding to the NJEDA for Food and Agriculture Innovation. Today’s funding was allocated to the organizations using the same methodology as the FY26 Food and Hunger Grants that Governor Murphy announced last week through the Department of Agriculture.

Throughout the Murphy Administration, the NJEDA has taken an active role in advancing the State’s food security goals through strategic investment, cross-agency collaboration, and innovative partnerships. Through initiatives like the Food Equity and Economic Development in New Jersey (FEED NJ) Program, the NJEDA is working to address system barriers that limit access to healthy and affordable grocery options, particularly in underserved communities.

At this time, November federal SNAP benefits are not yet available to New Jersey families. The U.S. Department of Agriculture must take further action to effectuate the distribution of the contingency funds so that they can become available to recipients. The State anticipates continued gaps in access as a result of these delays caused by the federal government, and will continue to provide updates about when SNAP benefits will be issued. This situation continues to change, so SNAP food assistance recipients should check their accounts at NJFamiliesFirst.com; call 800-997-3333; and visit njsnap.gov or nj.gov/snapshutdown for updates on the status of their SNAP benefits.

Residents are encouraged to locate food pantries and community kitchens via NJ 211 here. A number of pantries offer fresh produce in addition to stable, non-perishable foods, shopping appointments, and information about additional services.

Take Charge Program builds upon Authority’s robust clean energy suite of products

TRENTON, N.J. (November 3, 2025) – A new clean energy program aimed to increase electric vehicle charging stations across the state was approved by the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) Board last week. The $50 million Take Charge Program will provide funding for charging infrastructure projects for private commercial fleets, helping bring more electric vehicles onto New Jersey’s roadways.

The Take Charge Program will help cover the costs, including hardware and related installation costs, of establishing electric vehicle charging infrastructure for private commercial fleets. Private fleets interested in adopting electric vehicles require consistently available and reliable charging infrastructure but often face high costs for installation and site upgrades necessary for charger operation.

“Under Governor Phil Murphy’s leadership, New Jersey is leading the way in advancing robust programs and initiatives aimed to create a cleaner environment for future generations,” said NJEDA Chief Executive Officer Tim Sullivan. “The Take Charge Program will complement the NJEDA’s other clean energy initiatives that support expanding the state’s fleet of electric vehicles, improving air quality, saving businesses money, and bolstering our green economy.”

Earlier this year, Governor Murphy announced that there are over 250,000 electric vehicle registrations in New Jersey, a new milestone in the state’s mission to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and transition to 100 percent clean energy.

For-profit commercial organizations with two or more commercial-use vehicles will be eligible to apply for the Take Charge Program. Funding may be used to cover the cost of labor, materials, and equipment associated with new charging stations, including wiring and electric work, on-site renewable energy generation, and upgrades for installation and operation. Click here for a full list of eligibility requirements and eligible project costs. Interested parties with any questions may email takecharge@njeda.gov.

The minimum award for the Take Charge Program is $50,000. Awards will be capped at 50 percent of eligible project costs, but the cap may be increased by 5 percent increments if certain criteria are met, including if a project is in an Overburdened Community. An applicant may apply for multiple projects across different sites, as long as the total award does not exceed $5 million. The program is funded through the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI).

This new program builds upon the NJEDA’s continued efforts to put more zero emission vehicles on roads across the state. Earlier this year, the NJEDA approved Phase 3 of the New Jersey Zero Emission Incentive Program (NJ ZIP) and the New Jersey Zero Emission Vehicle Financing Program (NJ ZEV), which aims to accelerate the adoption and use of commercial zero emission medium- and heavy-duty vehicles within the state, while reducing harmful emissions. Vendor applications are now being accepted for both programs on a rolling basis, with purchaser applications opening soon.

Paramount leasing space at major studio campus in Bayonne

TRENTON, N.J. (October 30, 2025) – Following the announcement earlier this week that Paramount, A Skydance Corporation, (“Paramount”) (NASDAQ: PSKY), will lease space at 1888 Studios in Bayonne, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) Board designated the global media company as a Studio Partner under the state’s Film and Digital Media Tax Credit program during its meeting today. As a Studio Partner, Paramount would be eligible for a 40 percent base tax credit for qualified production expenses on future New Jersey film and television projects.

Paramount is a leading, next‑generation global media and entertainment company with a portfolio that unites legendary brands, including Paramount Pictures, Paramount Television, CBS – America’s most-watched broadcast network, CBS News, CBS Sports, Nickelodeon, MTV, BET, Comedy Central, Showtime, Paramount+, Pluto TV, and Skydance’s Animation, Film, Television, Interactive/Games, and Sports divisions.

“New Jersey’s competitive tax incentive program, deep talent pool, and diverse locations are proving to be successful in attracting leading entertainment companies, such as Paramount, to the state,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “This is a tremendous investment into Bayonne, which will help create good-paying careers, support small businesses and local vendors, and drive meaningful economic growth.”

“Paramount’s long-term commitment to New Jersey is a testament to our rising position as a national leader in film and television production,” said NJEDA Chief Executive Officer Tim Sullivan. “Since he took office, Governor Murphy has been committed to curating a robust film industry, leading to major productions and studios coming to New Jersey and hundreds of millions of dollars invested into communities across the state.”

Earlier this week, 1888 Studios announced that Paramount signed a minimum 10-year lease to occupy more than 285,000 square feet of production space on 1888 Studios’ future Bayonne campus.

On Tuesday, October 28^th, Andy Gordon, Chief Strategy Officer and Chief Operating Officer, for Paramount said: “Scaling our production and expanding our slate of world-class entertainment is central to our long-term strategy. We’re thrilled to invest in the United States and in the region and lean into our creative momentum to spark economic growth. We’re deeply grateful for the support and partnership of Governor Murphy, Senator Raj Mukherji, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority, and 1888 Studios. Thanks to highly competitive tax credit programs like New Jersey’s, the tri-state area is more attractive than ever before for production as we work together to create new jobs and empower more domestic production for America’s creative workforce.”

1888 Studios, developed by Togus Urban Renewal, LLC, will stand as the largest and first campus-style film and television studio facility in the Northeast and one of the largest in the nation, occupying 58 acres of land just miles from New York City. The development will include 23 mega-powered smart sound stages, more than 350,000 square feet of production support space, outdoor backlot space, amenities, office spaces, mills, lighting and grip facilities, and a parking garage. The development will also feature a waterfront park and promenade accessible to the public.

Last year, the NJEDA designated 1888 Studios as a Film-Lease Partner Facility, which commits the developer to occupy the facility for at least five years and grants future tenants eligibility to apply for increased tax credits for projects filmed at the facility. The NJEDA also approved 1888 Studios for tax credits under the Aspire Program to support the studio’s construction and development.

“1888 Studios proudly congratulates the NJEDA and Paramount on the authority’s official certification of Paramount as the recipient of New Jersey’s final Studio Partner designation, following their minimum 10-year lease of over 285,000 square feet at our state-of-the-art campus in Bayonne. This landmark recognition underscores both the growing vitality of New Jersey’s entertainment industry and the unmatched potential of 1888 Studios’ purpose-built, all-inclusive film and television production campus,” said Arpad “Arki” Busson, Chairman of Togus Urban Renewal. “We are immensely grateful to Governor Murphy, Tim Sullivan and their teams. This kind of public private partnership does not happen with just a vision and a dream. It happens only as the product of years of hard work and steady collaboration. Put simply, the visionary leadership and dedication of Governor Murphy and Tim Sullivan, the Alchemist, whose passion, creativity and tenacity forged this safe harbour for our industry, and brought the vision and execution necessary to get this deal done. Together, we have created a long-term, stable environment, through 2049, tailored to all storytellers and to the benefit of our broader New Jersey communities.”

In 2021, the Film and Digital Tax Credit Program was expanded, allowing the NJEDA to designate no more than three eligible film production companies as Studio Partners, which must commit to occupying large studio developments in New Jersey. Partners have access to a separate $150 million pool of incentives under the Film and Digital Media Tax Credit program, and it allows a production company to capture additional above-the-line salaries and wages as part of its tax credit award. Lionsgate and Netflix have also been designated as Studio Partners by the NJEDA for their planned studios in Newark and Fort Monmouth, respectively.

New Jersey’s film industry has continued to soar since Governor Murphy reinstated the film tax credit program in 2018. Last week, the NJEDA announced that overall in-state production spending from filmmaking hit $833 million in 2024, surpassing the previous record of $701 million in 2022.

New Jersey Economic Development Authority and the State of Dnipropetrovsk Will Collaborate to Bolster Innovation and Next-Generation Technologies

TRENTON – Governor Phil Murphy today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) and the State of Dnipropetrovsk in Ukraine to enhance economic collaboration, promote innovation, and contribute to the rebuilding of the Dnipropetrovsk region. The Governor shared this announcement in a video that aired during the Ukraine Action Summit in Washington, D.C. Today’s MoU, which marks the first economic agreement between New Jersey and Ukraine, will promote opportunities for industry partners to enable private sector collaboration, linking the academic and business ecosystems of the Dnipropetrovsk region and New Jersey.

“We are excited to announce this historic partnership with the State of Dnipropetrovsk,” said Governor Murphy. “As the proud home to the second-largest Ukrainian diaspora in America, New Jersey and Ukraine deeply cherish the principles of democracy and self-determination. Today’s MoU will advance our shared goal of sustainable economic growth and encourage innovation across sectors including technology, life sciences, and education. We look forward to a productive and meaningful partnership that strengthens both of our regions.”

“The Dnipro region continues to strengthen its international ties and opens a new chapter of transatlantic cooperation,” said Vladyslav Haivanenko, Acting Head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration. “The signing of the Memorandum of Understanding between the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration and the State of New Jersey lays the foundation for developing economic relations, advancing technology and innovation, and exchanging experience between our regions. I sincerely thank Governor Philip Murphy and Tim Sullivan, Chief Executive Officer of the New Jersey Economic Development Authority, for their support of our country and for this historic step. My special gratitude goes to the Embassy of Ukraine in the United States for its comprehensive assistance and facilitation in establishing contacts and fostering the development of this important partnership. I am confident that through our joint efforts we will create new opportunities for growth and mutual trust.”

The NJEDA and the Foreign Economic Activity Department of the State of Dnipropetrovsk will develop and implement specific projects that mutually benefit both states while simultaneously contributing to the rebuilding of the Dnipropetrovsk region. Priority areas for collaboration include sectors such as clean energy, artificial intelligence (AI), aerospace, and life sciences. To foster cooperation, both entities will share information on regulatory environments, facilitate the development of direct contacts and partnerships between public and private sector stakeholders, and promote networking between companies and research organizations in both states.

“Under Governor Murphy’s leadership, New Jersey has strengthened its international relationships to bolster the state’s economic competitiveness, create high-quality jobs, and leverage the expertise of entrepreneurs from around the world,” said NJEDA Chief Executive Officer Tim Sullivan. “The NJEDA will work closely with the State of Dnipropetrovsk to build up critical industries, enhance research and development, and attract private investment to both States.”

“A new chapter in building strong regional economic ties begins with the signing of a partnership Memorandum between the Dnipropetrovsk oblast and the State of New Jersey,” said Olga Stefanishyna, Ambassador of Ukraine to the United States. “This milestone initiative marks a significant step toward expanding mutual economic opportunities and fostering closer connections between our peoples. The Dnipropetrovsk oblast, one of Ukraine’s key industrial and technological centers, continues to endure daily attacks from Russian forces. In this challenging context, the partnership represents an important avenue for resilience and shared prosperity. Ukraine expresses its deep appreciation to Governor Philip Murphy and NJEDA CEO Tim Sullivan for their leadership and commitment to strengthening regional and international ties. Expanding cooperation in strategic industries, higher education, and applied research will bring tangible benefits to both sides—supporting Ukraine’s recovery, advancing innovation, and creating a foundation for sustainable growth. This partnership reaffirms the enduring friendship between Ukraine and the United States and underscores our shared vision of progress, security, and prosperity.”
