Monmouth Mall

Monmouth Mall, an enclosed shopping center in Eatontown, New Jersey owned by Vornado Realty Trust, is located on the corner of the intersection of NJ 35 and NJ 36. Currently, the mall has a gross leasable area of 1,500,000 sq ft (139,000 m2)[1], making it the fourth largest shopping mall in New Jersey (tied with Willowbrook Mall). The mall is located near the Garden State Parkway at Exit 105 and NJ 18 near the former location of the Eatontown Circle.

Ruby Tuesday and American Cafe, along with a new mall entrance, were adjacent to where the Macy’s Kids annex is located and where The Ground Round was formerly located. The mall also saw minor cosmetic changes that consisted of replacing black with sky blue in the color schemes through painting and retiling, as well as new lighting along the pillars. Through the years, Monmouth Mall has seen many different anchors that have come and gone. Anchor changes consisted of Caldor replacing Alexander’s in 1986, Macy’s replacing Bamberger’s in 1987, Lord and Taylor replacing Hahne’s in 1990, Stern’s replacing Abraham & Straus in 1995 and Boscov’s replacing Stern’s in 2001. Boscov’s closed in October 2008, while Burlington Coat Factory moved to the former Seaview Square Mall the same year.

Ashley Tisdale was discovered at the mall as a three-year old.
