East Brunswick, New Jersey (12/07/2020) – The new CubeSmart East Brunswick location is now open, to include approximately 1,100 units with 130,000 square feet of storage space. The burgeoning East Brunswick area is currently served by only two other self-storage facilities, so the new site is expected to draw high demand due to its central Route 18 location with access to three roadways and its proximity to new and growing residential and commercial developments.
The new facility, to be professionally managed by CubeSmart, has been developed by TFE Properties as part of their Junction Pointe project at the site of the former East Brunswick Kmart. The new retail center, named for its ideal central location and visibility from multiple major roads, includes the 150,000 square foot original Kmart building as well as multiple pad sites. TFE Properties acquired the White Castle and Investors Bank at the site shortly after their initial purchase of the main building, and they have recently broken ground on a Xfinity Store by Comcast at the location as well.
The front retail space at Junction Pointe will include approximately 85,000 square feet, with 52,000 square feet still available and expected to fill quickly despite timeline shifts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. A Crunch Gym at the site will be opening either by the end of the year or early in 2021. The site is also home to The Clothing Center, which has been in the community for 30 years and was relocated to a more state-of-the-art store.
“We saw a great opportunity in this East Brunswick property,” says Carey Tajfel, President of TFE Properties. “We specialize in buying underutilized properties and adding value through renovations and market repositioning, and East Brunswick Township is a great place to do business. Exciting things are happening on Route 18 in East Brunswick, including the repositioning of some of the older shopping centers and a commitment by the administration to bolstering retail and multi-family development on the corridor.” He also notes that the town’s excellent schools and strategic location for commuters are sure to be a boon for developers and for the community at large.
Other East Brunswick developments in the TFE Properties portfolio include the Chase Bank on Cranbury Road in the main office corridor, Cranbury Commons office building on Cranbury Road whose tenants include Pediatric Orthopedic Associates and Total Renal Care (DaVita), and a multi-pad retail site at 260 Route 18 featuring tenants such as Dunkin Donuts, AAA, and Army Recruitment Office. Overall, the growing TFE Properties portfolio includes projects throughout New Jersey and in Philadelphia.
