Reuten Associates Announces Plan for Luxury Senior Housing Community in Downtown Closter, NJ

Mary Ann Hubschman

CLOSTER, NJ, Aug.17, 2021 – Reuten Associates and Metropolis Property Group unveiled plans today for a 195-unit luxury senior housing development in Closter, N.J.

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.


Mike Reuten

“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.

IMG Expands to South Carolina with Acquisition of 242-Unit Greenville Asset

 

Andrea Howard

 Greenville, SC — Investors Management Group, Inc. ("IMG"), a California-based real estate investment and asset management firm, has acquired its first apartment community in South Carolina.

 

 The company purchased Tapestry at Hollingsworth Park, a 242-unit asset built in 2013 and located at 201 Rocky Slope Road in Greenville for an undisclosed price.

IMG now owns 16 apartment communities across the U.S. Sun Belt region (3,700 units) valued at $625 million.


Neil Schimmel

Nationally the company owns 4,300 units ($750 million). The firm has acquired more than $340 million in apartment assets since the start of the pandemic, bolstering its multifamily portfolio across the country.


“While our entry into the Greenville market was multiple years in the making, discussions started heating up earlier this year,” according to Neil Schimmel, Founder-CEO of IMG.

 

 "There's an oncoming surge of investor interest in multifamily projects in the beltway between Charlotte and Atlanta. The Greenville market is leading the recovery in terms of economic growth and population gains. These were the top drivers behind this deal."

Tapestry at Hollingsworth Park is located within Verdae, the largest Master Planned Urban Community in Greenville's history, minutes from Interstate 85 and the city's thriving downtown.

 

Tapestry offers a resident clubhouse with cyber cafe, coffee bar, library, outdoor kitchen and dining terrace, fitness studio, salt water pool with cabana, and car care center.

a 242-unit, 19-building  asset built in 2013
  at 201 Rocky Slope Road in Greenville, SC
 

Tapestry at Hollingsworth Park  encompassing a mix of one- two- and three-bedroom floor plans averaging 1,105 square feet.

IMG's value-add business plan will improve the asset through upgrades to unit interiors and community amenities.

Freddie Mac financing was secured through NorthMarq. Andrea Howard, Managing Director of NorthMarq's nationally ranked Multifamily Investment Sales team, represented the Buyer and Seller.

'King of Diamonds' Harry Winston Home Up for Sale at $32.5 Million

 

Marilyn Monroe 

NEW YORK CITY, NY -- Known throughout the world as the King of Diamonds and Jeweler to the Stars, Harry Winston’s jewelry designs have been sought after by movie stars, royalty and heads of state since the 1920s. 


Lauren Weisberger

Showing exceptional talent as early as age 15 for spotting valuable stones, Harry left his parents small jewelry business in California and moved to New York City, where he became a legendary diamond and jewelry specialist.

Paula Zahn

 

The Winston name became synonymous with fine jewelry such as in the 1953 song “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend” sung by Marilyn Monroe in the movie Gentlemen Prefer Blonds and Lauren Weisberger’s best-seller Chasing Harry Winston.


Mary Tyler Moore

He was well known for lending his glitziest jewels to actresses to show off at the Academy Awards, but Harry was especially famous for his donation of the Hope Diamond to the Smithsonian in 1958, according to TopTenRealEstateDeals.com.


Louise Beit

Harry owned the Hope Diamond for 10 years. Something else he owned for a long time: his jewel of a New York apartment with stunning views overlooking Central Park, which is now on the market, priced at $32.5 million.

Harry Winston

 One of New York’s premier white-glove addresses located directly across from the water basin in Central Park, 927 Fifth Avenue was built in 1917 in the Renaissance Revival style on 12 floors.

Harry Winston apartment home, 927 Fifth Avenue,
 New York City, NY

Located on the entire 9th floor, Harry’s former apartment has six bedrooms, five bathrooms, formal living and dining rooms as well as a library, butler’s pantry, an eat-in kitchen, six fireplaces, 27 oversized windows, herringbone floors and 10’6’ ceilings.

With over 5,000 square feet, rooms in the pre-war building are quite spacious, as befitted the period.  

 

Designed by Warren & Wetmore, well known for designing New York’s Grand Central Terminal and many of the era’s largest hotels, including the Mayflower Hotel in Washington D.C. and the Royal Hawaiian Hotel in Honolulu. 

 

 Former residents of the building have included Paula Zahn and Mary Tyler Moore.  



Though Winston died in 1978 at the age of 82, the Harry Winston salons are still the gold standard of jewelry stores with locations throughout the world, including the U.S., England, China, Switzerland, Germany and Japan. 

 John Burger

The 927 Fifth Avenue listing agent is John Burger of Brown Harris Stevens and Louise Beit of Sotheby's International Realty, both located in Manhattan.
