OceanFirst Proposing New Bank Plus Retail Building In Brick
The Board of Adjustment has a special hearing set to hear plans to tear down the existing bank and build a new one, plus a retail site.

BRICK, NJ — The OceanFirst Bank office at the corner of Chambers Bridge Road and Brick Boulevard would get a makeover under a proposal set to go before the Brick Township Board of Adjustment on Monday night.
The proposal also includes a retail building, all on the site where the bank currently sits, according to application documents filed on the proposal, which is slated to be heard at 7 p.m. at the township municipal building.
Under the application, the existing building would be torn down and the parking lot reconfigured. A new bank building would be constructed nearer to the point of the triangular property where Chambers Bridge intersects Brick Boulevard. It would have a drive-thru canopy behind it.

The proposal needs several variances, including setbacks, which the applicant says are the result of existing constraints at the oddly sized lot.
