The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A new business-use building of about 18,460 square feet is proposed at 815 Sterling Ave in Toms River Township, Ocean County. County records classify it as office space. The county's most recent filing on it is dated June 9, 2025.
The records do not say what is on the site now, who would occupy the building, or how many floors it would have. No news coverage, township meeting agendas or minutes, or developer page specific to this project turned up in online searches. Nothing was found about opposition or approvals.
A building of this size is a mid-sized office building. It is larger than a small professional office, but much smaller than a corporate campus.
What it could mean nearby
- Traffic and parking effects are unknown. Office buildings of this size usually add weekday commuter trips, and the township reviews parking and driveway access.
- Jobs could come from the office use, but the records give no tenant or employment figures.
- Records do not address schools, open space or utilities.
Where it stands
A county planning filing was recorded on 2025-06-09. No township approval status was found online. Projects like this usually go through township site plan review, sometimes with a variance request, and then through construction permits.
