Aiming high: A gleaming new office tower is Camden’s next big swing. Officials are now quietly working to get the project started.
Dreams of a building a new 25-story, 500,000-square-foot office tower in Camden still hinge on addressing several complex issues, but officials are confident in the project’s future, citing commitments from several key anchors in the city and the type of cooperation that has helped other large-scale investments in the city come to fruition.
Laying the groundwork
As you’ll read in this month’s cover story, stakeholders in Camden have been quietly working to advance the proposed 25-story, 500,000-square-foot office tower that would be known as the Beacon Building. That’s no easy task, given the post-pandemic office market and complex questions of ownership and financial viability. Yet they’re confident in the project’s future, citing commitments from key anchor institutions and the type of cooperation that has helped other large-scale investments in the city come to fruition.
Going global: Inside the growth of Asian logistics firms in New Jersey’s industrial market
Asia-based third-party logistics firms have played an increasingly important role in New Jersey’s industrial sector, creating new demand and helping to fill excess inventory after a recent surge in speculative construction.

Right place, right time
As you’ll read in this month’s cover story, Asia-based third-party logistics firms have been critical for many Garden State landlords, creating new demand and helping to fill excess inventory after the recent development surge. A spike in 2024 — when the offshore firms accounted for some 42 percent of all Class A industrial leasing in the state — has given way to a more modest pace in 2025. Yet developers expect Asian 3PLs to continue to loom large going forward, even with the cloud of a trade war between the U.S. and China.
System updates
As you’ll read in this month’s cover story, New Brunswick is marking its latest and perhaps most monumental investment in health care with the opening of the 12-story, 520,000-square-foot Jack & Sheryl Morris Cancer Center. Executives with RWJBarnabas Health, the Rutgers Cancer Institute and other key stakeholders unveiled the facility in mid-May, hailing the arrival of New Jersey’s first freestanding cancer hospital and one of only 13 in the country, part of a $1 billion project that has brought top-tier patient care and cutting-edge research labs under one roof.
