@mmguy, until its announced, its not a done deal, and even then it could collapse…. but apparently there are leases in attorney review..

I highly doubt that they are going to put a Wallmart in the Monmouth Mall. They already have a superstore in Feehold and a store in Neptune. I also wonder if Dick’s is going to put a store in the mall when Modells is already there.

Pretty reliable sources indicate, that it is only a matter of time, before Walmart is announced as one new tenant in the old Boscovs space… Looks like Dicks will be the other tenant in the space..

Walked through the mall today and noticed going out of business signs at Borders Express. Kind of figured with the new big Barnes and Noble opening.

@mallguy, I remember way back before when Monmouth Mall was The Shopping Center and they had the outdoor phone booths that were opaque bluish in color and were curved…..wish I had photos of those from back in the day.

@mmguy, Gertrude Hawk is now in MM as well!

We just need something to come in to take over the Boscov’s building

Went to Monmouth Mall and noticed a few things…mmguy earlier noted that the changes could be a precursor for things to come and I do agree. The new Barnes and Noble is quite large on the inside (didn’t notice a music dept though) and was pretty crowded…definitely a good thing and better store than the old West Long Branch store in Consumer Square. As I said earlier, I would have designed it a little differently, putting the outside entrance on the Wyckoff Road side of the building (it faces Route 36). To my surprise, parking on the side of the new B&N was pretty filled. The new restaurant in the old Braddock’s will be Buffalo Wild Wings, new to the area (they are opening a location in the former Bennigan’s in North Brunswick). There is also a new monument sign on Route 36 with a new logo.

This year, they moved Santa to the dead side of the mall, near the former Boscov’s…kind of ingenous what they did trying to block out the vacant anchor and place Santa over there to bring traffic.

Hopefully these changes will lead to the announcement of an interior renovation…looking at it again, I will reiterate: this place needs a cosmetic facelift!!!

Hey everyone! I was in the Monmouth Mall yesterday and I saw that they are putting in a Cinnabun and a new Bar and Grill in the former Braddock’s. I don’t know if this is the beginning of things to come. But I for one am very excited!

@Randy,

I’m not surprised, but I am surprised that Qdoba isn’t opening in downtown Red Bank.

@SEAN, I know this is the reputation, and I wouldnt be surprises. They did however, just spend some time and money refurbishing the “regular” walmart, they really overhauled it.. who knows with them… they do what they want because they can.. I know all three of them are always busy..
