LG in Englewood Cliffs responds to criticisms for project

Body

 

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS — The council's plans to assist in helping LG Electronics build the tallest structure in the borough are coming under fire as the governing body contends with more lawsuits targeting the rezoning, including a move to save the palisades by the Rockefeller family. . . .

In addition to Rockefeller, Scenic Hudson, the New York-New Jersey Trail Conference and the New Jersey State Federation of Women's Clubs, which helped create the Palisades Interstate Park Commission to oversee the preservation of the cliffs, accused the borough of spot zoning and violating the public trust, according to the suit.
