County records show a new educational building of about 16,800 square feet proposed at 1025 Deal Road in Ocean Township. The county filing is dated September 29, 2025.
The address is listed as the Hillel Yeshiva campus, a private day school on Deal Road. No page found online describes this particular building, so its exact use is unconfirmed. In 2021 the township Board of Adjustment approved a large expansion of that school campus (a preschool, high school additions, more parking and road changes). The new building may relate to that earlier approval, but no source confirms this.
No news coverage, agenda or developer page about this specific 16,800 sq ft building was found.
What it could mean nearby
- The 2021 campus approval included parking expansion and a left-turn lane into the school entrance, so traffic and parking were the main neighborhood concerns then.
- That approval allowed enrollment to grow by roughly 700 students. Whether this building adds students is not stated in the records found.
- No information was found on jobs, utilities or open space for this building.
Where it stands
The county has received a filing for the building, and no township hearing, decision or construction start was found online. Next steps usually include local board review, any needed variances, and then construction permits.
