RDR HITS NAIL ON HEAD WITH NEW BUILDING

The new building owned by RDR Properties on the corner of Cookman and Grand Avenue's is close to being finished. And man, what an amazing job they've done so far.

The building was formerly occupied by long time Asbury resident and artist Dick Honymar who has since moved to his artist's barn, built by RDR, in Long Branch.

Honymar worked closely with RDR on the Cookman Ave.project and they took his advice in restoring the building to it's orginal splendor.

And according to us, they couldn't have done a better job. Everything is architecturally perfect as far as we're concened; the exterior finishes, windows, lighting and overall style are awesome. Job well done to RDR Properties. Hopefully this new building will influence current and future developers in their design and implementation.

Ono Restaurant partnered by RDR & Maryilyn Schlossbach is scheduled to open on the first floor.
