In November, I wrote an article about the Wall Township Applebee's closing. As a Wall Township resident, I was sad to hear the news because not only are Applebee's boneless wings the BEST but that specific Applebee's was home to many wonderful memories. I remember slow-dancing with a girl for the first time at my 6th grade dance and after my friends and I celebrated by going to Applebee's. NOSTALGIA! It was open for almost 20 years and the closing was decided before the pandemic. After seeing construction going on inside the gutted building, I decided to do a little reporting. 

With that, expect a Sola Salon Studio to open in the 8,500-square-foot building. You might be saying, "Isn't there a salon next door?" That is true but as of now, expect the salons to be competing with each other. It's important to note, the Sola Salon franchise holds a master lease and subleases rooms to individual tenants/ services. (KEEP SCROLLING FOR MORE DETAILS ABOUT SOLA SALON).
