"Other topics will include hotel and multi-family development and the ripple effect on the office market, and the long-term outlook for Newark."

    Also on the day's program will be a presentation by Ron Beit of RBH Group on his company's Teachers Village development in Newark, a project combining academic buildings with residences and retail uses.
