Hoboken gets a strip mall

The new strip mall near 14th and Adams is nearly complete.

According to Hoboken411, the “Peachtree Hollow” Strip Mall includes 47 parking spaces. This will further encourage car use in town which will increase already high demand for parking and lead to more traffic, congestion, pollution, and noise in Hoboken.

How did this happen? Who thought it would be good to make Hoboken a less walkable and pedestrian-friendly place by adding a strip mall?
