The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A site plan has been filed for a shopping center on Hooper Avenue in Toms River Township. It would hold about 34,252 square feet of building space on roughly 14 acres. The county summary lists a bank, retail stores, a restaurant and medical or dental offices.
The county records don't say what is on the land now or who the tenants would be. A site plan is a detailed layout of buildings, parking, driveways and landscaping. The latest county filing is dated February 2026.
No news coverage, township agenda or minutes, or developer page was found that clearly covers this project. Online reports about other Hooper Avenue shopping center work could not be tied to this filing, so they are not used here.
What it could mean nearby
- Traffic: a bank, restaurant and medical offices usually bring steady daily trips to Hooper Avenue. The records don't include a traffic study.
- Jobs: retail, restaurant, bank and medical uses typically create local jobs, but no job counts are given.
- Open space and utilities: the records don't say how much of the 14 acres would be built on, paved or kept as green space.
Where it stands
The records show a site plan filed with the county, with the latest filing on 2026-02-11. No approval or hearing result was found. Site plans are usually reviewed by the township planning board at a public hearing. Any approval typically comes with conditions, followed by construction permits.
