On April 8th, the HPHA hosted a Visioning Session for Paulus Hook. Attendees broke out into 4 different sessions to discuss their concerns and talk about ideas for solutions about Safety, Transportation, Sustainability and Parks and Open Space in our neighborhood. Led by Bill Westerman, NJCU Sociology and Anthropology and with NJCU students as part of their spring project, the evening was very successful and we plan to continue with a series of interactive meetings.
Thanks to our donors and sponsors, who do so much to support our neighborhood events!

St. Peter's Prep Update. Last year the August hearing date was postponed and has never been rescheduled. The school is suing the Zoning Board in an attempt to overturn the 2022 decision made when Zoning agreed to keep in place the ruling made by Historic Preservation in 2019 which prevented St. Peter's Prep from demolishing their historic Civil War-era buildings.
To read the history of the buildings and actions taken against it by St. Peter's Prep, go to the St. Peter's Prep page on the website.
Please reach out to city officials, because allowing St. Peter's to demolish these historic buildings will affect all historic districts. The HPHA has already spent $23k to fight the demolition. Your tax-deductible donation will enable the HPHA, a registered 501c3 organization, to continue the fight. You can donate HERE
