New York City-based developer Kushner Companies held a ceremonial groundbreaking May 9, kickstarting construction on a transformative $500 million project to redevelop the aging Monmouth Mall.

It is reassuring to see that not only are a good number of new restaurants opening in the Two River area but also that the incredible piece of property once home to Fort Monmouth is being repurposed in inventive ways. 

Amazon has been in the process of opening two Amazon Fresh grocery store locations in the Two River area, in Holmdel and Eatontown, for nearly two years now. Although the online retail giant boasted of a “unique” shopping experience with its Just Walk Out program, allowing shoppers to skip the checkout line completely, the company has confirmed it may completely do away with the program due to issues. Amazon Fresh will retain its smart Dash Carts which let customers check out through a digital pad affixed to the cart.

What looks like a large hole in the center of Monmouth Mall right now will soon be the gateway to an outdoor promenade surrounded by small retail stores, residences and parks – for both people and dogs.

The pedestrian fatally struck at the White Road railroad crossing in Little Silver last week has been identified by NJ Transit as David D. Fortin, 67, of Eatontown.

Come spring, Monmouth Mall will be turning over a new leaf. The high-profile, long-awaited redevelopment of the area landmark undertaken by owner and real estate developer Kushner Companies will begin in March, transforming the site into 1,000 residences and an open-air retail shopping complex, as it originally was in 1960.

If you want to try something different from your usual go-to restaurant, you can take a culinary journey to India, thanks to the fairly new Mauka Indian Cuisine in Eatontown.

The public can now access and peruse detailed plans for Netflix Studios Fort Monmouth online in a 137-page document complete with visuals.
