Who's taking bets on whether the now-empty lots will actually remain empty?

Exactly what I was thinking. I’ll be very surprised if the land isn’t repurposed for some income-producing use.

Expect McMansions coming in or developers of condos. Woodbridge always seemed to me very working class.

I’m betting the state will sell the property to NJ Dem big shots for pennies on the dollar.

I know Woodbridge. It’s the next logical destination for higher value manufacturing and offices due to an expanding throughput at Port Authority ports at Elizabeth.

Grabbing homes there is purely eminent domain and political corruption

They will be sold to companies that pay taxes to the City and State.

My first thought.

The story goes that an evangelist predicted Christ would come to earth soon and that he would need a fine house to stay in. The congregation chipped in, built a beautiful home - and waited. When Christ didn't show up on the prophesied date, the evangelist said the house shouldn't go to waste and moved in, but would move out when The Day came.

I can just see in a couple of years: "Well, Climate Change now seems to be YEARS off, so let's sell the land to be improved." - and pocket some nice change from the developers.
