BFJ is working with the Borough of Red Bank on a holistic plan for the redevelopment of the area around its train station. The area is a mix of surface parking owned by NJ Transit, rail-related infrastructure, privately owned properties, and the borough’s Public Works facility. We prepared redevelopment designation studies and completed a redevelopment plan that built on concepts established in the 2023 Red Bank Master Plan, which BFJ also completed. The work incorporated community input on desired uses and the scale and aesthetics of development. The redevelopment plan, currently in the public hearing stage, establishes a set of implementing standards that govern the uses, design, and built form of future development, with a significant focus on enhancing the public realm and the historic train station building.

In addition to this project and the 2023 Master Plan, as Red Bank’s Borough Planner BFJ also completed an updated municipal Environmental Resource Inventory and assisted in the borough’s reporting on consistency with New Jersey’s State Plan.
