- Route 9 north, Route 520 east, Route 35 north
Newman Springs Road west across Holmdel and Marlboro is the pleasant half; the Route 9 stretch at the end is where you lose the time if you set off at five.
Parking tends to be the first thing people from Red Bank ask about, which makes sense when your normal experience of going anywhere involves the White Street lot and a walk up Broad Street. There is none of that here. Cherry Tree Plaza is a strip on Route 9 with a free lot, the spaces at our end are generally empty, and the door is level with the asphalt.
The rest of it is short. One NovoTHOR bed in one room, by appointment only, because there is nothing to double-book. You lie down for fifteen to twenty minutes under red and near-infrared light — the FDA clearance runs to temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and to increased local circulation, which is a narrower claim than most of this industry makes. The first appointment runs about forty-five minutes because we talk it through first. People book from this direction after long weeks, after training, and for stiffness that has stopped being occasional, and the drive out along Newman Springs Road is a good deal more agreeable than the drive back into the borough at six.
Boroughs and places next to Red Bank
Little Silver
Little Silver became a borough in 1923. Its train station on Sycamore Avenue was built in 1890 and is on the National Register, and the Parker Homestead on Rumson Road, held by one family from the 1660s until 1996, is now a state historic site.
Oceanic
Oceanic is the commercial part of Rumson, along Bingham Avenue and River Road. It was called Port Washington until 1845. Bingham Avenue runs onto the Oceanic Bridge, built in 1939 across the Navesink to Locust Point in Middletown, and Victory Park sits on the river nearby.
Rumson
Rumson is a borough on the peninsula between the Navesink and Shrewsbury Rivers, nearly a third of its area water. English settlers bought the land from the Lenape in 1665, and the name is worn down from Navarumsunk. It was incorporated out of Shrewsbury Township in 1907, after decades as a summer colony of river estates.
Shrewsbury
Shrewsbury Borough is built around the Four Corners at Broad Street and Sycamore Avenue, where Christ Church of 1769, the Allen House, the Quaker meeting house and the Presbyterian church all stand. A mile south of Red Bank, the Grove at Shrewsbury opened on Broad Street in 1988.
Questions from Red Bank
- Is the parking any easier than downtown?
- Considerably. No circling White Street, no meter, no permit. Cherry Tree Plaza is a surface lot and the spaces in front of our door are usually open.
- Which way out of the borough is quickest?
- Newman Springs Road — Route 520 — west out of town and then down Route 9. Going south on Route 35 through Eatontown adds traffic lights without saving distance.
- Can I take the train instead?
- Not usefully. Red Bank station is on the North Jersey Coast Line and we are inland on Route 9, well away from any rail or bus route. This is a car trip.
- Could I fit a session in before a show at the Count Basie?
- You could, but you would be driving back into the evening traffic you had just escaped. Most people from Red Bank book mid-morning, or on a Tuesday or Thursday when we are open until six.
