EATONTOWN, NJ—The Fort Monmouth Economic Redevelopment Authority has given the green light to a transaction that, if approved by the state's governor, would be the first step in redeveloping an 89-acre section of the former military base along its West Gate in Eatontown, NJ, into a $130-million live-work-play mixed use complex.
The “Purchase and Sale & Redevelopment Agreement” approved Mar. 1 for Fort Monmouth Parcel B Redevelopment, an affiliate of Paramount Realty Services, is subject to a 10-day veto period by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.
The 89-acre Parcel B property includes approximately 55 acres that front Route 35 in Eatontown, as well as 34 acres of land that FMERA acquired from the United States Army in November as part of the Phase 2 Economic Development Conveyance Agreement.
