TROY — Bow Tie Cinemas' proposed 11-theater multiplex at 1 Monument Square has been pulled from the city Planning Commission's meeting Tuesday as a result of a lawsuit filed against the city and the developers by a neighboring property owner.

Judge Development Corp., through its affiliated limited liability companies, 251 River Street and 225 River Street, sued the city, Bow Tie and Bonacio Construction on Sept. 1 in state Supreme Court claiming the city was not following proper environmental review procedures and the $22.7 million project was partially be situated on city parkland.

The project was removed from the Tuesday night agenda for the Planning Commission in order to allow for a legal review of the lawsuit, Larry Novik, director of business development for Bonacio Construction, said Monday.

"We'll work diligently to deal with any legitimate concerns raised by Mr. Judge," Novik said.

The case has been assigned to Supreme Court Justice Richard McNally, according to court records.

City officials believed that the Planning Commission was prepared to approve the site plan and complete the environmental review of the project.

Bow Tie has proposed building 11 movie theaters with parking for about 105 vehicles at the Monument Square site, which is the former location for City Hall. The municipal building was razed in 2011 to clear the 1.18-acre property between River Street and the Hudson River for development.

The site sits at the southern end of Riverfront Park. The plans presented to the city include a 50-foot buffer between the river and the proposed theaters. This stretch of land has been identified as parkland, which is not to be built upon.

Bow Tie officials said they want to begin construction this fall in order to open the theaters in time for the 2018 holiday season.

Issues have been raised about the theaters' appearance and how they would fit into the 19th century architecture that is prevalent in downtown. The theater company has made changes to the design in an attempt to meet Planning Commission concerns.

This is the fourth attempt to redevelop the former City Hall site. The previous three were withdrawn. JDC's proposal was dropped by the city when Judge declined to share financial information with the municipality.
