Things are puffing along at full speed for a highly anticipated cannabis dispensary and lounge in New Jersey’s largest city.
Earlier this week, the partners behind Hashstoria’s newest location at 799-805 Broad Street in Newark announced that they have received a class five cannabis retail license from the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission.
It’s a huge milestone for the company, which includes Hashstoria co-founder and Wu-Tang Clan member Raekwon the Chef. Now, the project appears to have enlisted another well-known stakeholder from the music industry: Charlamagne tha God.
Other partners include civil rights attorney Bakari Sellers and architect Rachael Grochowski of Montclair-based RHG Architecture + Design.
The company has three existing facilities in Oregon.
