A Brick Township restaurant that has been closed for more than a year, with its building unoccupied, would be turned into a medical office under a proposal pending before the township\u2019s planning board.<\/p>\n

The property at 2213 Route 88, which once housed the Dim Sum Chinese restaurant, will receive improvements before reopening as a medical office, according to an application before the board. The new owner, NU Realty LLC, is proposing site improvements including pavement repair, striping, and replacement of an existing trash enclosure. There are no proposed expansions of the building itself, which will remain in the same footprint.<\/p>\n

The proposal must go before the board since the building, which first came under its jurisdiction in 1975, is authorized for a restaurant use and not a medical use, and there is no buffer between the property and an adjacent residential zone, where a 15-foot buffer is normally required. Several other variances require re-affirmation from the approvals granted decades ago.<\/p>\n

The building was constructed in 1977 and measures 3,450 square feet in area. It was sold in July to NU Realty for $815,000.<\/p>\n
