  •   This month we continue to track some key metrics that create a snapshot of the regional economy. As you look at the statistics, remember that they will represent the most recent data available (to us), so if you have something that is more up-to-date or more accurate, please let us know.
      Here’s our look at where the region stands at the mid-way point of the third quarter.
      Casino revenues for July were up from June by almost $80 million, but still off from 2009 levels by 5%.

  •   As you know, this year, your favorite regional business publication has turned its attention from profiling South Jersey’s “People to Watch” to “Projects to Watch.”
      Specifically, we’re going county-by-county and looking at the development and redevelopment Projects to Watch, including (when we can) the most important projects completed in the last 12 months, the most important projects underway, and the most important projects on the drawing board.
