TINTON FALLS, NJ — Inspired by Somerset Development, the developer behind Bell Works, recently announced their plans to reimagine Commvault’s headquarters in Tinton Falls under their ‘metroburb’ model.

Originally constructed in 2014, Commvault HQ hosts a range of amenities, including open-concept workspaces, conference rooms, a fitness center, a cafeteria, outdoor spaces, walking paths and recreational areas.

Now, Inspired plans to enhance the cyber resilience and data protection company's 276,900-square-foot property under the Bell Works brand, with plans to begin leasing to local companies and organizations seeking high-quality experiential office and retail spaces, with extensive amenities and offerings for employees.

“The design of Commvault’s headquarters is a perfect fit for the vision and ethos of the ‘Metroburb’ model we have developed at our highly successful Bell Works New Jersey and Bell Works Chicagoland properties,” said Ralph Zucker, president of Inspired by Somerset Development. “Having already developed in the Fort Monmouth area, acquiring this property to create a more intimate version of Bell Works is a natural next step for us.”

“Since the space was previously closed to the public, we look forward to collaborating with Commvault to reconfigure it, allowing residents of Tinton Falls and surrounding areas to enjoy the building’s extensive offerings, just like its tenants,” Zucker continued.

Building on existing Bell Works projects, Inspired said they plan to preserve the integrity of the Commvault headquarters while introducing a flexible office model, modern amenities and community-centric public spaces.

The space will include a range of office footprints as well as fully functional “Ready-To-Wear” office suites that offer both short- and long-term leasing options. coLab, a collaborative workspace membership concept, is set to be integrated as well.

“Expanding the coLab brand to Fort Monmouth is an exciting next step for us as we look to diversify the markets in which we offer our high-quality, flexible coworking model,” said Sean Donohue, managing director of coLab. “Spaces of this caliber are often few and far between, especially in more suburban areas, which is why we look forward to entering the market with workplaces designed to inspire creativity and boost productivity.”

Additional building amenities will include a selection of local restaurants, a Bell Market, a coffee shop, retail spaces and a health club, officials said.

Commvault will remain a prominent tenant in the building and will occupy 75,000 square feet of office space as part of a leaseback agreement with Inspired.

“The Commvault headquarters is a landmark in Monmouth County, having played a significant role in our region’s business landscape,” said Charles Terefenko, borough administrator and director of public safety in Tinton Falls.

“We are excited to see this iconic property retain its original purpose as a hub for innovation, now under the stewardship of Inspired by Somerset Development,” Terefenko continued. “With their proven track record, we are confident that this building will continue to serve as a vibrant center for both businesses and the community.”
