Lions Gate Films Inc. has secured a key designation by the state Economic Development Authority, allowing it to secure additional incentives in connection with a sprawling studio complex that’s now under construction in Newark.
A sprawling studio complex is coming to the former site of a Newark public housing complex, under a $125 million project unveiled Tuesday by its development team and public officials.
Newark city officials on Thursday took a key step toward redeveloping a historic but blighted public housing complex, where plans call for a new mixed-income residential complex and potential commercial uses such as business incubators, film studios and research space.
