Brunswick Square Mall Transforms into Open-Air Hub
•
Brunswick Square Mall in East Brunswick, New Jersey, is undergoing a major transformation, evolving from an enclosed mall to an open-air shopping center. The $150 million project, set to begin in December 2023, will feature new stores, medical offices, and entertainment spots. The mall, which opened in 1970, has struggled in recent years but is now poised for a comeback with the involvement of real estate firms Paramount Realty and Edgewood Properties. The revamped mall will include Nordstrom Rack, J.Crew, a PGA Tour Superstore, and more, while current favorites like AMC Theatres and Barnes & Noble will remain. The project is expected to create jobs, boost local taxes, and attract shoppers from across Middlesex County, aligning with a broader trend of malls transitioning to open-air town center styles.
