'We're Not Against Seniors': Critics Address Ridgewood Assisted Living Complex

RIDGEWOOD, NJ — Residents concerned about a proposed senior living complex in Ridgewood are planning to attend a meeting on Monday to unveil a revised proposal.

"We're not against seniors," says a website by a group called Ridgewood Neighbors United, who have cited traffic concerns and other issues with the proposed Kensington housing development.

The project was originally slated to include 120 beds at North Maple Avenue, Marshall Street, and Franklin Avenue.

Kensington Senior Living will host the meeting Monday evening at the Ridgewood Library to discuss their revised proposal.

A percentage of the beds are expected to be low- or moderate-income housing, in order to help the town meet its state affordable housing obligations, according to the site.

The meeting will take place Monday at 7:30 p.m. in the Ridgewood Library auditorium.

The library is located at 125 North Maple Ave.
