iddletown, NJ — CBRE Group, Inc. , one of New Jer-

its Basking Ridge facility, with the addition of ambulatory surgeries, including medical oncology, neurological oncol- ogy, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, diagnostic radiology, surgical consultations, clinical research trials, social work, nutrition services and space for community education. Ad- ditionally, the healthcare pro- vider will also house its main data center at the site. As of April 1, the net absorp- tion in 2013 has been 1.77 mil- lion s/f in Greater Monmouth County. Currently there is a total inventory of 4.32 mil- lion s/f in 27 buildings. These buildings average 160,125 s/f with an average age of 24. “Monmouth County is on a tremendous upswing as the list of large-scale adap- tive reuse projects contin- ues to tick upward at a fast pace in communities such as Asbury Park, Tinton Falls, and Holmdel,” said Macnow. “This transaction will take an even bigger bite into that availability rate. Developers

are seeing the potential and seizing upon opportunities to find new solutions that create valuable options for outdated properties.” Macnow, who is also repre- senting the owner of the for- mer Asbury Park Press build- ing, in Neptune, in an effort to sell it for redevelopment, said more sites are expected to hit the market in these shore communities, with this trend continuing to have a major impact throughout Monmouth County and the entire state. The Sloan-Kettering facility is expected to open in mid to late 2016, helping up to 200 patients daily with expected growth to as many as 400-500 per day. Approximately 400 jobs will be created, which is needed in the county after the loss of more than 1,000 jobs due to the closing of Fort Monmouth several years ago. Sloan-Kettering received a grant from the New Jersey Economic Development Au- thority for the jobs created at the data center. n
