Redevelopment Workshop
Do you need to know anything about New Anchors for Downtown, Placemaking and New Resources for Downtown Revitalization? Then you need to make a reservation for our DNJ Redevelopment Seminar to be held on Friday, September 28 in Camden.

Rutgers University, Camden is hosting us and we are proud to announce the following sponsors: Commerce Bank, Campbell Soup, Adventure Aquarium, Dranoff Properties, City of Camden, Camden Redevelopment Agency, Michael F. Camardo, and the NJ Economic Development Authority.

On the agenda are important sessions, and the afternoon will include a walking and bus tour of the Camden success stories. Cost for the session is $50 per person for DNJ members and $75 for non-members.
