Development Update
March 22, 2008The Promenade
A mixed use development offering single family homes (7), condominums (22), retail (12,000 SF) and office space (3,000 SF) located across from the main entrance of Schering-Plough near the intersection of Morris Ave and River Rd.
The foundations are poured and the steel is going up for the Retail, Office and Condominum part of this development. The developer Diversified Properties is marketing this mixed use project consisting of single family homes and condo units above retail and office space. Visit their website www.545morrisave.com Or call the developer at 908-273-2400.
Summit Place (formerly Summit Medical Group)
Planned mixed use devleopment of 60,000 square feet of Class A office (40,000 SF of renovated space and 20,000 SF of new office space) with 40 residential condominum and 4 townhouse units. The office space and condo units will provide about 206 parking spaces on-site with a 2 level parking structure.
It should be noted that the site is about 3.30 acres. The new devleopment plan increase previous site use by about 14,000 SF of new office space, something less than 40 new residential units, and less than 100 new parking spaces. Testimony by the developer’s experts suggests that this mixed use project will generate less than one-half of the estimated daily visits perviously generated at this location, the former Summit Medical Group offices.
The developer plans started to work through planning board approval around August 2007
Demolition is nearly completed on the site. A four story skeleton of the old medical office building remains. The next and hopefully last planning board meeting is scheduled for April 28th for municipal Planning Board approval of the developers plans.
Claremont Corporate
A planned 44,000 SF Class A office development with parking located at the intersection of Springfield Ave and Morris Ave. A unique aspect of this project is the developers plan to build the new office structure and parking around the preserved and renovated historic building currently on the site.
Site work is beginning as the weather improves. Please visit their website www.claremontcorporate.com
