Princeton University plans
to begin construction on its
Arts and Transit center this
month, but first must deal
with the 10 houses it owns on
Alexander Road that stand in
the way.
In an effort to remove the
houses as soon as possible, the
university made a surprising
offer to the public: All of the
houses are available free to
any interested individuals,
provided they remove the
structures from the property
at their own expense.
Typically what would hap-
pen is the houses would be de-
molished, PU spokesman
Martin Mbugua said. We
thought in this case there
might be some interest out
there, so were providing the
University
offers free
houses

Nineteenth-century homes stand empty along
Alexander Road, available free to anyone who can pay
to haul them away. Red and white signs warn firefight-
ers not to take any undue risks if the homes burn.

AvalonBay files lawsuit
By KATIE MORGAN
The Princeton Sun
Developer AvalonBay filed a
lawsuit in Mercer County Superi-
or Court on Feb. 20 challenging
the Princeton Regional Planning
Boards rejection of a proposed
project on Witherspoon Street.
In December, the planning
board rejected the proposal,
which called for a 280-unit apart-
ment complex to be constructed
on the former university medical
center site.
The lawsuit, filed by law firm
Bisgaier Hoff, LLC, names the
Princeton Planning Board, the
municipality, and the mayor and
council as defendants.
The developer contends that
the defendants, collectively re-
ferred to in the lawsuit as
Princeton, violated the Fair
Housing Act by rejecting the con-
cept plans, which included 56
units of affordable housing.
The Princeton way typically
involves the approval of multi-
family developments without pro-
viding anything approaching the
requisite 20 percent set aside for
affordable housing, the lawsuit
reads. AvalonBay and the hous-
ing regions low and moderate in-
come households desperately
need the court to intervene in this
matter and promptly reverse the
planning boards illegal denial of
the application.
AvalonBays argument hinges
on the belief that Princeton has
not fulfilled affordable housing
obligations under the Fair Hous-
ing Act, the Mount Laurel Doc-
trine, the state Constitution and
Princetons own ordinances.
According to the lawsuit, only
six of 184 units built in Princeton
Borough over the last two decades
are designated affordable housing
units. AvalonBay contends that if
the project on the hospital site is
not constructed, Princeton will
continue to have a dearth of af-
fordable housing units.
To AvalonBays knowledge,
the Planning Board has never ap-

proved a multi-family develop-
ment within the former Prince-
ton Borough, the lawsuit says.
It is doubtful when, if ever, the
planning board and the mayor
and council will permit an inclu-
sionary development with 56 af-
fordable housing units to be con-
structed on the Princeton Hospi-
tal site. As a result of the forego-
ing, these affordable housing
households will continue to be
barred from living in Princeton.
According to the suit, Avalon-
Bay has spent more than $1 mil-
lion on the project, and continues
to pay $175,000 in maintenance
fees each month to Princeton
HealthCare, which owns the prop-
erty.
The developer can only extend
its current contract with Prince-
ton HealthCare until June 30. The
lawsuit asks the court to take that
deadline into consideration.
As a result of these financial
and time pressures, if this court
does not reverse the planning
boards denial no later than May
1, AvalonBay intends to termi-
nate its contract and will effec-
tively walk away from this devel-
opment, the lawsuit reads.
There have been outspoken op-
ponents of the project since it
was first presented to the plan-
ning board. Residents of the
neighborhoods near the site
formed a group called Princeton
Citizens for Sustainable Neigh-
borhoods and challenged the proj-
ect, hiring lawyers and experts to
testify to the planning board in
opposition to the development.
Many felt the design plans
were monolithic, and too closely
resembled a gated community.
Richard Wolff, spokesman for
AvalonBay, said the developer
was not commenting beyond the
lawsuit.
Its all there in the lawsuit,
he said. All I can say is we hope
this is resolved quickly.

Princeton Police Chief David
Dudeck said residents should not
be alarmed to find officers on
their doorsteps over the next few
weeks.
The officers will be carrying
out the first initiative of the
newly formed Safe Neighbor-
hoods Unit by knocking on doors
and asking residents to complete
a survey.
This first initiative of our
Safe Neighborhoods Unit really
started a long time ago when
everyone started talking about
the pros and cons of consolida-
tion, Dudeck said. Some of the
questions people asked me were
things like, How would you pre-
vent all the patrol cars from just
going into the center of town?
What type of services would you
provide?
Dudeck said that the Public
Safety Committee, made up of
himself, Mayor Liz Lempert, Ad-
ministrator Bob Bruschi, Coun-
cilman Lance Liverman and
Councilwoman Heather Howard,
had discussed the possibility of
asking Princeton residents about
their expectations for the police
department.
As we discussed it, we came
up with the idea of doing an ex-
pectancy survey, Dudeck said. I
would like to have the type of po-
lice department that interacts
with the community. They dont
just hide in their police cars; they
get out and speak with the citi-
zens. I thought it would be a good
idea to reach out to those citizens
beginning with this survey.
The officers in the Safe Neigh-
borhoods Unit, under the supervi-
sion of Lts. Chris Morgan and
Sharon Papp, are Sgt. Jon Buc-
chere and Patrol Officers Buddy
Thomas and Dan Federico.
The officers will be visiting
homes on Saturdays and on week-
days between 5 and 7:30 p.m. and
asking residents to complete a
five-question survey.
We broke Princeton down into
five different sectors, Dudeck
said. In each sector, the Safe
Neighborhoods Unit will reach
out to between 50 and 75 resi-
dents. Theyll go door to door. If
youre not home theyre going to
put a door knocker on your door
and urge you to complete the sur-
vey online.
Dudeck said the department is
looking for citizen feedback, both
positive and negative.
We want to get a feel for what
people expect from the police de-
partment, he said. What will
make us a good police depart-
ment? What would make you
think we arent doing our jobs so
well? We want to hear your con-
cerns. We want to hear the things
you think we do pretty well, as
well as the things that you think
we could do better.
Dudeck said the Safe Neighbor-
hoods Unit will be interacting
closely with the community and
the schools, riding bikes in
Princetons residential areas dur-
ing warm weather.
We want to increase not only
urgent type interaction with the
police department, but also a
proactive, positive interaction,
he said.
Howard said the creation of
the Safe Neighborhoods Unit is a
sign that consolidation is having
a positive effect.
I dont want it to be lost on the
residents that what were talking
about here is achieving one of the
key promises of consolidation,
she said. We are reinstating com-
munity policing, which is some-
thing that had been cut back on.
Now we have a dedicated unit
thats going to be about in the
community with a real focus on
schools. This is really going to
strengthen ties.
Liverman said he anticipates
the unit having a positive impact,
particularly on Princetons youth.
I think its extremely impor-
tant to build a relationship be-
tween our police department and
the community, especially with
the young people, he said. As a
youth growing up in Princeton, I
had a very positive relationship
with the police officers. Because
of that you learn to respect police
officers a lot more. I think that
this bonding between the commu-
nity and the police officers will
put us light years ahead of where
we would be if we didnt do this.
Dudeck said officers would
begin going door-to-door with the
surveys in the first week of
March. A link to the online ver-
sion of the survey will be avail-
able on the departments website
and social network sites. The sur-
vey is expected to continue
through mid-April.

Route 1: The saga continues...
6 THE PRINCETON SUN MARCH 6-12, 2013
W
e all drive it, or drive across
it or around it, in all sea-
sons, at all hours, but only
because we have no other choice. Its
that vintage New Jersey nightmare
known as U.S. Route 1, which weve
been fixing for what seems to be
most of our lives. The stretch that
runs from South Brunswick to
Lawrence ranks among the worst
choke points on the Eastern Seaboard.
No matter what we do, it seems, it just
doesnt get any better. Im so happy to
be stuck in traffic, said no one ever.
But how could this be otherwise?
Without factoring in drive-through
traffic, visitor traffic and commercial
traffic, without factoring in residen-
tial and commercial development proj-
ects already approved, the population
of Mercer County keeps rising. Ac-
cording to the federal census, popula-
tion rose to roughly 351,000 in 2000 to
roughly 367,000 in 2010, an increase of
4.5 percent. If we lowball population
growth to 3 percent by 2020, we will
stand at roughly 378,000. More people,
more cars, more congestion.
Lets face facts. Theres no solution
here. The character of the Route 1
stretch through Plainsboro, West
Windsor and Lawrence has been deter-
mined by the abandonment effected
by vociferous public opposition of
the proposed Route 92 to the north, on
one hand, and by the continued exis-
tence of that unholy mess at the junc-
ture of I-295 to the south, on the other.
Would the provision of intelligent and
affordable mass transit options help?
Sure, it probably would, but probably
not very much, and the discussion is
entirely speculative.
Whats not speculative is that some-
thing has to be done, and that we need
to do what we can. Its encouraging
that the DOT is offering a concept
instead of a plan, because the public
isnt there yet. The DOT is looking for
feedback, and theyre getting it, no-
tably from the citizens advocacy group
Smart Traffic Solutions. Its encourag-
ing that Princeton and Plainsboro, and
Princeton University, too, are getting
involved in a discussion process about
a project that would directly affect
West Windsor, especially the already
beleaguered neighborhood of Penns
Neck.
While everybody appears to be com-
fortable with the proposed widening of
Route 1, when the concept turns to
new jughandles and traffic lights
(Smart Traffic Solutions is calling for
a new overpass, at Washington Road),
public officials and citizens want to
see credible studies and metrics. Its a
reasonable request. Thats where this
concept should go from here.

Council addresses Route 1 traffic problems
By KATIE MORGAN
The Princeton Sun
The Princeton Council addressed the
state Department of Transportations new
concept for solving persistent traffic
problems on Route 1 by formally acknowl-
edging the proposal and deciding to offer
feedback, and by requesting more informa-
tion from the DOT.
Anton Lahnston, a member of Prince-
tons Traffic and Transportation commit-
tee, gave a short presentation on the pro-
posal to the governing body at the Feb. 25
business meeting.
Lahnston said the committee met on the
issue just before the start of the business
meeting.
The discussions weve had focused on
ideas for improving or shifting or support-
ing this concept plan, Lahnston said.
Thats about where we are at this point.
The concept affects the stretch of Route
1 from the Dinky rail line overpass to the
Millstone River. The plan calls for both the
southbound and northbound sides to be
widened to four lanes. In addition, the con-
cept proposes a new traffic light and in-
cludes two jughandles, one on either side of
the road, approximately halfway between
Washington and Harrison roads.
The purpose here from NJ DOT, as I un-
derstand it, is that they really want traffic
on Route 1 to move more smoothly, more
quickly and more effectively, Lahnston
said. This is a concept. Its not something
that has been funded. There isnt money
thats been appropriated for it at this par-
ticular time. The request from NJ DOT
was just, We want input from the commu-
nity.
Resident Kip Cherry said that while
council should continue to work on re-
sponding to the DOTs concept, short-term
projects would help with the congestion on
the stretch of highway.
I do think we need to look at cheaper
and quicker interim solutions, she said.
There are tiny little nips and ticks that
could be done that would do quite a bit to
help. They would be very inexpensive and
maybe could be done in a couple of years.
If we think too big we might end up with
nothing for a long time.
After discussion, council determined

Want a home? Contact the university
houses for people who might have
an opportunity to move them.
Mbugua said several people
have expressed interest, but no
one has made an offer.
The houses are not in move-in
condition, Mbugua said. Some
have gone through significant
changes, mostly in the interior, in
preparation for removal or demo-
lition.
Two of the structures have
been stripped down to the wall
studs. The floorboards and walls
have been removed. Others still
retain elements of their original
construction, including wide-
plank hardwood floors, sturdy
wooden banisters, ornate crown
moldings and carved fireplace
mantles. One house features em-
bellished tin ceilings in several
rooms.
Mbugua said he is still waiting
for the ages of the houses to be de-
termined, but construction ele-
ments suggest the homes were
built in the mid-to-late 19th centu-
ry.
Atlantic Structure Movers,
LLC, a company located in
Barnegat, said it has received
several inquiries from individu-
als interested in moving the hous-
es.
Weve had several calls about
the houses, an ASM employee
said. Weve told them we cant
get involved. Were located at the
Jersey Shore and the work were
doing here now is such a priori-
ty.
The employee said it would be
difficult to estimate the cost of
moving one of the Alexander
Road houses because of the com-
plexity of the process.
Moving a house requires
drawings and documentation,
outlines of the route to get the
house where its going, surveys
and certifications, the employee
said. All of these things are so
project-specific its impossible to
even guesstimate.
The structures available are
106, 112-116, 132-134, 136, 138-140,
144 and 152 Alexander Road.
Requests for any of the hous-
es should be made as soon as pos-
sible, Mbugua said. The move
should be completed by the end of
April.

and Regional Affairs at (609) 258-

that a letter would be sent to the
DOT acknowledging the concept
proposal and advising that
Princeton would continue to con-
sider it and offer feedback. In ad-
dition, council plans to request
data from any traffic studies the
DOT has completed on the area.
Lahnston advised council to
engage Princeton University,
which owns the Sarnoff Property
directly adjacent to the stretch of
Route 1 in question. In addition,
Lahnston suggested that Prince-
ton work closely with West Wind-
sor to develop traffic solutions for
the area.
The story about shifting this
traffic if you live in Princeton is
one thing. If you live in West
Windsor, its different, Lahnston
said. Theyre two different
points of view. One of the things
that I think is coming out of this
is a burning desire for West Wind-
sor and Princeton to come togeth-
er and work on planning and de-
veloping a concept. If we go it
alone and they go it alone, its
going to be less than half the
value. As a council and as a com-
munity, we need to look at this as
an opportunity to help shape this
project that will ultimately have
an enormous impact on all of us.

Irish scholar to present lecture
Irish theater critic and scholar
Fintan OToole will present the
2013 Robert Fagles Memorial Lec-
ture, entitled Three Irish Here-
sies, on March 8 at 4:30 p.m. in
the James M. Stewart '32 Theater.
The lecture is part of a series pre-
sented by Princeton Universitys
Fund for Irish Studies. The event
is free and open to the public.
OToole, one of Irelands lead-
ing public intellectuals, is teach-
ing at Princeton this semester, in-
cluding the course, Modern Irish
Theatre: Oscar Wilde to Martin
McDonagh to Riverdance. Fa-
gles, for whom the annual Memo-
rial Lecture is named, was a
member of the Princeton faculty
for 42 years in the Department of
Comparative Literature and a
renowned translator of Greek
classics. His critically acclaimed
translations of Homers The
Iliad and The Odyssey became
best-sellers.
In the Robert Fagles Memorial
Lecture, O'Toole suggests that the
true legacy of Irish Catholic
thought lies in three profound
ideas, each of which was declared
a heresy by the official church.
As a drama critic, OToole has
written for The Irish Times, New
York Daily News, Sunday Trib-
une (Dublin), and In Dublin Mag-
azine. His books on theater span a
wide range of topics, from his bi-
ography of Richard Brinsley
Sheridan to theater currently ap-
pearing on Irish stages. He is as-
sistant editor, columnist and fea-
ture writer for The Irish Times.
He also contributes to The New
York Review of Books, The New
Yorker, Granta, The Guardian,
The Observer, and other interna-
tional publications. In 2011, O-
Toole was named one of
"Britain's top 300 intellectuals" by
The Observer. He has received the
A.T. Cross Award for Supreme
Contribution to Irish Journalism,
the Millennium Social Inclusion
Award, and Journalist of the
Year in 2010 from TV3 Media
Awards.
OTooles most recent project,
History of Ireland in 100 Objects,
will cover 100 highly charged arti-
facts from the last 10,000 years. It
will be published as a convention-
al book by the Royal Irish Acade-
my and will also be available
as a free iPad and iPhone applica-
tion.
OTooles visiting professor-
ship is made possible through
funding from Leonard L. Milberg,
Princeton Class of 1953, a gener-
ous supporter of the arts and cul-
tural studies who in 2011 donated
an extensive collection of prose
by Irish writers to the university,
including more than 1,700 books,
manuscripts, portraits, audio-vi-
sual materials and other items
that illustrate the richness and vi-
tality of Irish writing from 1798 to
the present. Milbergs donation of
the Irish prose collection was
made in Fagles' honor.
The Fund for Irish Studies,
chaired by Princeton professor
and Pulitzer Prize-winning poet
Paul Muldoon, affords all Prince-
ton students, and the community
at large, a wider and deeper sense
of the languages, literatures,
drama, visual arts, history, poli-
tics and economics not only of
Ireland but of Ireland in the
world. Its mission is to coordi-
nate and expand existing courses
taught by present members of the
faculty and to offer a series of
public lectures, literary readings,
conferences, exhibitions, screen-
ings and theatrical performances.
In addition, the Program in
Theater will present a production
of Woman and Scarecrow by
Irish dramatist Marina Carr on
March 8 through 15. It is the pow-
erful story of a woman facing
death who looks back over her life
and asks what could have been.

Tribute to Women set for March 7
The YWCA of Princetons 30th
Annual Tribute to Women
Awards Dinner will take place on
March 7 at the Hyatt Regency
Princeton beginning at 5:15 p.m.
10 women will be inducted to the
YWCAs prestigious list of hon-
orees who embody its mission of
eliminating racism and empower-
ing women. Debby DArcangelo
will be the recipient of the es-
teemed Fannie E. Floyd Racial
Justice Award in recognition of
her numerous contributions to
social justice.
The award program was estab-
lished by the YWCA Princeton in
1984 to honor women who have
made significant contributions to
their professions and the commu-
nity in executive, entrepreneur-
ial, professional, educational,
elected, activist, and volunteer
roles. Since then, it has become
the premier event in celebration
of the extraordinary women in
the area.
Now in its 30th year, the event
continues to honor those that em-
body the YWCAs mission of elim-
inating racism, empowering
women, and promoting peace, jus-
tice, freedom and dignity for all.
During this time, the YWCA
Princeton has honored over 300
women who have generously
given of themselves for the good
of others. Their lives are stories
of accomplishments and acco-
lades. It is an honor to present to
the community this group of re-
markable women, states Linda
Richter, event co- chair.
Brenda Ross-Dulan, Wells
Fargo EVP and Southern New
Jersey Regional President, is the
honorary chair. Linda Richter,
Personal Paperwork Solutions &
More, Inc. and Georgianne Vini-
combe, Monday Morning Flower
and Balloon Co, are serving as
event co-chairs. Honorees are
nominated by colleagues and
peers in the workplace and in the
community each fall. A selection
committee evaluates all those
nominated via criteria such as
professional responsibility and
contributions, community serv-
ice, leadership, academic achieve-
ment, and a commitment to the
YWCAs mission.
Though there are still strides to
be made in respect to womens
equality, the awards are an exam-
ple of the power of women and
how much things have changed
over time. The awards ceremony
pays tribute to a group of amaz-
ing women who truly are a bea-
con of light for generations of
girls to come, shares Diane
Hasili, YWCA Princeton
spokesperson.
The event has grown signifi-
cantly over the past four decades
with nearly 500 community lead-
ers and business representatives
attending the event in acknowl-
edgement of these extraordinary
women. Wells Fargo and NRG En-
ergy, Inc. are this years Empow-
erment sponsors, Bill and Judy
Scheide are Justice sponsors, and
New Jersey Manufacturers is a
Dignity sponsor. Some sponsor-
ship opportunities are still avail-
able.
