Developers outline planned hotel-focused redevelopment at Washington Square Mall in Warren Township
BRC Commercial Properties representatives told a Warren Township community meeting they plan to redevelop the Washington Square Mall property with a hotel-centered project and a mix of entertainment and retail amenities; BRC said a purchase agreement is in place and aims to begin work by late 2027.
Representatives of BRC Commercial Properties hosted a community meeting in Warren Township on Oct. 23, 2026, to introduce a planned redevelopment of the Washington Square Mall property, WRTV reported. BRC CEO Britt Wagner attended, the station said.
BRC described the proposal as a hotel-focused redevelopment with a range of possible amenities — a senior community, kids zone and arcade, spa, rooftop dining, an enhanced theater experience, luxury shopping and a Ferris wheel were listed among options — but WRTV reported the developer cautioned that “none of the possible amenities attached to the hotel development are set in stone.” The developer said it will prioritize amenities that draw the most public interest, per WRTV’s coverage and developer remarks at the meeting (quoted in the station’s story).
