The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A new storage building of about 23,910 square feet is permitted at 155-161 Gould Ave in Paterson. County planning records classify it as a warehouse and storage use. That is roughly the footprint of several large houses combined.
The records do not say what is on the site now, who will use the building, or what will be stored in it. No news coverage, meeting agendas, hearing notices or developer pages about this project were found online. Nothing turned up on opposition or on approvals beyond the county's note that the building is permitted.
Gould Ave is a street of mixed small properties in Paterson's 07503 area. The new building would be a larger commercial use than most nearby lots.
What it could mean nearby
- Truck and delivery traffic is possible with a storage building. The records give no details on loading or access, so the actual effect is unknown.
- Storage buildings usually bring only a few permanent jobs. The records give no job figures for this project.
Where it stands
County records show the project as permitted, with the latest filing dated 2025-03-26. Construction usually follows once building permits and inspections are in place, and the city then issues a certificate of occupancy when the building is finished.

How to comment officially
For this project: The City of Paterson land use boards (the Planning Board and Zoning Board of Adjustment) handle local development applications, and residents can ask the city's planning office about agendas and public comment; no pending hearing for this project was found.
This is a construction permit, which comes after the town's land use approvals, so the public hearing stage is usually over.
- New projects in Paterson City go before its planning board or zoning board of adjustment at public hearings, where anyone can speak and the testimony goes on the record. Watch the agendas for the next ones.
