Developers Sal Lupoli and Bob Ansin are joining forces to restart work on the Monarch on the Merrimack project in Lawrence.
Lupoli said that the plan calls for him to build office and retail space in a portion of the old Wood Worsted Mill at the corner of South Union and Merrimack streets, while Ansin would convert part of it to residential use.
Salisbury may soon have its largest commercial development: a new 270,000-square-foot retail shopping center just off Interstate 95.
If all goes as planned, Salisbury could have a "New England seaside-designed" commercial hub filled with apparel and food stores and an assortment of restaurants, plus a source for hundreds of jobs, within its borders by the summer of 2010.
