A new specialty retail commercial center is coming to Route 17 in Ridgewood, with businesses such as Starbucks and Verizon leading the list of potential tenants.
The Ridgewood Planning Board on Tuesday unanimously approved Malvern Burrough’s plan to build a 15,300-square-foot strip mall on land along Route 17 south near Paramus Road, property that he has owned and has been trying to develop for the past 30 years. According to a preliminary construction schedule discussed last month, Burroughs hopes to finally break ground on the project in early 2014 and allow lessees to move in during the fourth quarter.
Board members granted their approval this week after the developer and his team returned a slightly modified site plan that incorporated the changes and recommendations previously made by Ridgewood’s planning and engineering professionals. The board was also overwhelmingly satisfied with the overall design and aesthetics of the proposed building, which were detailed Tuesday night by project architect Charles Dietz.
