Ralph Zucker Doesn't Stop At Holmdel, Opens Bell Works Fort Monmouth In Tinton Falls
Zucker's latest real estate adventure is the corporate headquarters of Commvault, and Jersey Mike's. It's open to the public to walk around.
TINTON FALLS, NJ — You might not know it, but Ralph Zucker, the owner of Bell Works in Holmdel, has been busy opening something similar in Tinton Falls.
It's called Bell Works Fort Monmouth and it's an office complex at the site of the former Commvault headquarters, 1 CommVault Way, Tinton Falls, on the former Fort Monmouth U.S. Army base. (Commvault is a global cyber and data protection company.)
Zucker is the owner and CEO of Inspired by Somerset Development company. This is his third Bell Works location in America; his first was Bell Works Holmdel, followed by Bell Works Chicagoland and now his third, Bell Works Fort Monmouth.

Zucker purchased the property from Commvault in 2025. Commvault is still located on the property; they are an anchor tenant renting office space from Zucker through a leaseback agreement. And it's also home to Jersey Mike's corporate headquarters.
Zucker celebrate a ribbon cutting there Thursday, Nov. 12.

Bell Works Fort Monmouth is open to the public seven days a week, from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.; you are welcome to explore and enjoy the building. There's also a Jersey Mike's sandwich spot on site, where you can get sandwiches, and a Bell Market cafe, selling Honeybell coffee and pastries. Both are open to the public.
The campus follows Zucker's “metroburb” model, where he creates pedestrian plazas and public squares surrounded by white-collar offices, bars/restaurants and boutiques. It has his signature Bell Works' ready-to-wear offices, fully built-out and ready to move in, and also coLab, Bell Works’ flexible coworking membership space, where he rents shared and dedicated desks, private executive offices and team meeting areas.
"Bell Works began with a simple idea: where others saw an underutilized corporate campus, we saw an opportunity to create something the entire community could benefit from and enjoy,” said Zucker. “There’s something special happening in Tinton Falls and across the region right now. With Netflix coming to Fort Monmouth and new investment bringing more attention to the area, we’re just scratching the surface of what’s possible."
