The Grove at Shrewsbury, New Jersey's first lifestyle center, opened in 1988. In the late 80s, the lifestyle center was a new idea in retail. It requires less land than a regional shopping center, produces higher per square foot sales than many shopping centers and is thought of as being more convenient and accessible to shoppers due to its smaller size. The Grove fits all these qualities and further attracted retailers to its property due to its lush, well-kept gardens, brick walkways, comfortable seating areas, community events and individual storefronts. The primary anchor in the early years of The Grove was
Epstein's , a regional New Jersey Department store.Epstein's would later close andSealfon's , another upscale, regional New Jersey Dearment store opened in its place. That store also went out of business. The space was eventually subdivided and in its place opened a flagshipBrooks Brothers andAnthropologie , Monmouth County's first. The Grove at Shrewsbury continues to be a dominant player in the Monmouth County retail landscape and its success has inspired many more lifestyle centers to be built within New Jersey.tores
Stores at The Grove range from national chains such as
The Gap andPottery Barn to regional chains such asStacy Gemma .Dining
