A Passaic County Planning Board agenda from spring 2024 lists a site plan for 411-415 Main Avenue. The owner is named as a Jewish study and community congregation (a kollel). It appears to be the same site, but the agenda does not state the building's size or use. The county's latest filing is dated 2025-04-03.
No news coverage, local hearing notices or opposition were found. The records do not say what is on the site now.
What it could mean nearby
