What’s Opening in the Old Branch Brook Pool Building?

Can we expect any slew of chain restaurants and retailers to occupy the 38,664 square foot building that used to house Branch Brook Pool Company in Brick?

Actually, it's the complete opposite.

The huge building off of Route 88 in Brick will be the new home to a Meridian Fitness and Wellness Center.

Meridian is advertising a new Fitness and Wellness Center in Brick to open in January 2015, which will feature onsite physical therapy, an aquatic center with a whirlpool and sauna, aqua aerobics and aquatic training, plus other features including “elegant locker rooms,” group exercise rooms, a dedicated functional training area, cycling facility and babysitting services.
