The defeated ordinance would have given an abatement to Hoboken-based
developer Dean Geibel, whose deal with Hyman to buy Flintkote fell

who added that he has already spent $600,000 for preliminary work on
the proposed 432-unit condominium project that was slated to be built
at the Flintkote site, at Luis Muñoz Marin Boulevard and Grand
Street.
