HARRISON—A New Jersey-based developer plans to include a hotel as part of its efforts to transform 35-acres in Harrison.

Advance Realty announced that an AC Hotel by Marriott will join the Riverbend District, the developer's 35-acre redevelopment project in southern Harrison. The district is part of the town's plans to recast itself as a commercial and residential hub, largely through 250 acres along the Passaic River.

"The addition of AC Hotels by Marriott to the Riverbend District will be a key component in the continued development and enhancement of a dynamic destination in Harrison," Peter Cocoziello, president of Advance Realty, said in a statement. "The AC Hotel will benefit area corporations by accommodating business travel and will add to the variety of dining and entertainment options for Riverbend residents and visitors."
