STAR LEDGER, 2015

PLAINFIELD, NJ - Mario Camino remembers sitting in the window booth at Maria’s on North Avenue as a child and gazing across the street, up at the apartment windows where his family had lived for decades. Now the real estate developer owns that building, along with 3 others in the area. At just 31 years old, he believes he is the person who can reshape a Plainfield neighborhood that badly needs a second chance. Camino has bold plans to revitalize a two-block area of Plainfield’s downtown district stretching from the train station to East Front Street, between Park and Watchung avenues. 

 

"WE WANT TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF THE RESIDENTS OF PLAINFIELD, NJ" Mario Camino

JERSEY LATINO BOUND MAGAZINE, 2016

PLAINFIELD, NJ - THE PLAINFIELD VISIONARY - "WE WANT TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF THE RESIDENTS OF PLAINFIELD, NJ" Camino said. During his 20s, his focus was on residential properties, most of them distressed, which he bought, renovated, and resold. By the time he reached 30, he was ready to turn his sights on commercial real estate. He wanted to manage larger assets and  “do better for his community  than just buy buildings.” he said. His vision was to help improve neighborhoods and finding the right place was the first test. “So many places were already taken--Jersey City and Weehawken, for example–and there were developers who had much deeper pockets than I did.” In Plainfield he saw many ‘fixer uppers’ that could benefit from his expertise and commitment. Nicknamed the “Queen City,” the Union County municipality had lost much of its regal luster. And the timing was ripe, the city was implementing a new set of zoning and development rules, part of a new master plan recently adopted. Camino read the rules and envisioned how he could contribute to the revitalization of Plainfield's downtown.

"The plan is to create PRE-College acceptance incentives that will allow for young adults to NOT have to worry about expenses associated with college applications, books, traveling and moving expenses and other unforeseen that might hinder their ability to go to college" Camino teamed up with an artist who sold his art and shared half of his proceeds with the school and its schoolarship initiative.
