The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A new business-use building of about 11,830 square feet is proposed on Block 177, Lot 21.01 in Linden City, Union County. County records classify it as office space. A block and lot number is the way the county identifies a parcel on the tax map.
The records don't say what is on the site now, who would occupy the building, or how many floors it would have. For scale, 11,830 square feet is a small to mid-size commercial building, roughly the floor area of several large houses.
Searches found no news coverage, meeting agendas, hearing notices or developer pages that clearly refer to this site. No opposition, approvals or tenants could be confirmed online.
What it could mean nearby
- Traffic, parking and access effects can't be judged because no site plan details were found.
- An office use of this size could bring some daytime jobs and visitors, but no tenant or employee count is public.
Where it stands
The county's latest filing is dated March 8, 2024. No local approval could be confirmed online. Projects like this usually go to the city's planning or zoning board for site plan review, and construction permits follow if it is approved.
