FMERA said it s open to several industries purchasing the site, including film and digital, but also life sciences, information and high tech, clean energy and the food and beverage industry.
Steadman said they haven t opened the parcel to public bids, yet. Typically, one purchaser is selected for a Fort Monmouth parcel. Steadman did not comment when asked if the authority would be willing to divide the parcel between multiple buyers.
EATONTOWN - Construction has started at The Alley at the Fort, which could open by next year, bringing bowling back to the former military base.
The owners, Rumson-based Parker Creek Partners, closed on the property at the end of last month, said the Fort Monmouth Economic Revitalization Authority, or FMERA. The partners held a groundbreaking event Thursday.
The alley, which once served as a center of entertainment for those stationed at Fort Monmouth, will be part of a new nexus of entertainment amenities that are being created at the fort, said Bruce Steadman, FMERA s executive director.
Those amenities include the Loft, the former Dance Hall that is being retrofitted for a small microbrewery and an event space, the Fort Athletic Club, which once served as a fitness center, and the former Expo Theater, which will serve as another recreation space.
