Retrieved September 28, 2011.〕 Before that sale, the Companies had employed approximately 800 people.〔 In August 2011, representatives from the Kushner Companies made a presentation to the Perth Amboy Redevelopment Agency proposing a scaled-back design concept for the Landings at Harborside, a residential development set to be built along the city's waterfront, and allowing rental housing instead of owner-occupied units as originally planned. The plan, which would save two historic Perth Amboy buildings, was endorsed by Mayor Wilda Diaz, who was quoted as saying "Too many sites have been torn down. Let’s restore them and use them for other purposes." She further said that Kushner sketched a concept for the courthouse that was incorporated into the redesign.〔Russell, Suzanne (September 16, 2011).
