The
Residences at Reuten Park will replace five obsolete post-World War
II-era manufacturing buildings located within the Reuten Corporate Park to
create a modern, state-of-the-art senior housing community.

“We fully support plans to convert the industrial park into a residential community that will benefit seniors and add to the charm and beauty of our town,” said Mary Ann Hubschman, who owns and operates the Palisades Country Day School across the street from Reuten Corporate Park with her husband Richard Hubschman.
“This
development will more than meet the needs of seniors in Closter which currently
doesn’t offer this type of housing for our residents.”
“We believe that transforming the oldest portion of Reuten Corporate Park from a manufacturing center to a beautiful luxury senior housing community is the ‘highest and best use’ of our land,” said Mike Reuten, owner and managing partner, Reuten Associates.
“It will beautify the neighborhood and add a significant asset to our community – benefitting seniors, families, neighbors and local businesses.”
“Often times, seniors like me have to move outside of their communities because of the lack of senior housing options,” said Pat Reuten, co-owner of Reuten Associates.
“This new development
will be a wonderful way to allow seniors to stay close to their families in
Closter while still giving them the opportunity to embrace their independence.”
Nick
Sparozic, a lifelong area resident who owns the property where Closter Car
Wash operates (formerly Jersey Nick’s Car Wash), also supports the project.
“For generations, the Reutens have played a pivotal role in Closter becoming one of New Jersey’s most livable communities," said Sparozic.
"Their business has created jobs, provided a significant source of revenue for the town’s tax base, made donations to charities, and provided other meaningful ways of support for the town.
“Mike Reuten is continuing the family tradition of caring
for Closter’s residents by giving the town’s senior population the opportunity
to stay in their own community. I’m 100 percent in support of it.”
The Residences at Reuten Park will be located on an approximately six-acre property at 231 and 239 Herbert Avenue in downtown Closter – within walking distance of downtown retail stores and restaurants including Closter Plaza, as well as the Closter Nature Center.
The property is located 10 miles north of the George Washington Bridge in Bergen County.
