Kane Natural Area after a noted New Jersey conservationist. The Empire Tract was later permanently protected by the Meadowlands Conservation Trust, which purchased it in 2005 and renamed it the Richard P. His successor, Jim McGreevey, informed Mills the following year that the state government would not provide permits for the mall, effectively ending the project as originally proposed. New Jersey governor Donald DiFrancesco announced plans to protect the area in 2001, encouraging the Mills Corporation to look at other potential sites in the region. Army Corps of Engineers conducted its own study which contradicted the EPA's findings and stated that the project was not a threat to the Meadowlands area. Fish and Wildlife Service opposed the project after studying its potential environmental impact. The Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Opponents stated that the mall would have a devastating impact on the ecological health of the area, while the Mills Corporation defended its plans by arguing that the land was already devastated by pesticide usage and invasive common reeds. Īfter Empire and Mills announced their proposal in 1996, the project quickly became controversial and faced opposition from a variety of environmental and conservationist groups, as well as the tract's congressman, Steve Rothman. To mitigate the heavy environmental impact, the remainder of the tract would have been converted into stormwater retention basins. The commercial development would have consisted of 2.1 million square feet (200,000 m 2) of retail space, a hotel, and 1 million square feet (93,000 m 2) of office space on 206 acres (83 ha) of the tract. The tract was owned by Empire Ltd., a company which had purchased the land in 1961 and had been planning a major development since 1987. Meadowlands Mills, as it was called, would have been constructed on the Empire Tract, an area of 587 acres (238 ha) of wetlands in Carlstadt, New Jersey.

In late June 2017, construction had resumed, after new financing had been secured, though the project would suffer a series of 'chronically delayed' opening dates. Īfter a series of ownership changes, financing issues, construction delays, and legal challenges, construction stopped again in December 2016. Triple Five Group announced intent to take over the mall in May 2011, and on July 31, 2013, officially gained control of the mall and the surrounding site.
