Vito Mazza Salon Officially Opens In Their New Home At Avenue & Green

WOODBRIDGE, NJ — Big news in Woodbridge: Vito Mazza hair salon — a familiar presence on Woodbridge's Main Street for the past 57 years — is now all moved into its new home in the Avenue & Green apartment building.

The salon is open for business in its new home. Their new number is (732) 636-0119 for appointment bookings.

Avenue & Green is the newish luxury apartment complex at 10 Green Street, adjacent to the Woodbridge train station; it started renting in 2021. Avenue & Green is a mix of studio, one- and two-bedroom rentals; rent starts at $1,999 for a studio and go up from there.

Vito Mazza rents a ground-floor space in the apartment building. They join LeGrand Coffee House, owned by another Woodbridge native, Eric LeGrand, and the UPS store. There is still one retail space there open to rent.

Vito Mazza is a full-service salon, spa, and hair and scalp wellness center. The family-owned and operated business, founded by Vito Mazza, Sr. in 1967, has grown to more than 40 employees trained in the latest salon, skincare, massage, nail and make-up services. Vito Mazza is also one of the few salons in the country to offer extensive Hair & Scalp Wellness services to help men and women address thinning hair and medical hair loss.

“In fact, the growth of our Hair & Scalp Wellness offering – which accounts for more than half of our business – was a key factor in our search for a new location," said Ann Mazza, senior vice president. "We wanted to provide these clients with a dedicated entry. We have evolved into a multifaceted business. The Prism team was instrumental in helping us create two storefronts at Avenue & Green.”

Prism Capital Partners is the developer of Avenue & Green, built at the site of the old Lucas Chevrolet dealership in Woodbridge. The hair salon worked closely with Prism to maximize the 3,600-square-foot space. Salon upgrades include state-of-the-art equipment, a dedicated hair color bar and a manicure and pedicure area with digital screens to promote customer relaxation. Their new location features four large treatment rooms for massage, skincare services and the latest hair removal techniques. Custom wall displays designed to honor the company’s history and the longevity of its staff marry elements of the old and new locations.

Mazza said she and her husband, Vito Mazza, Jr., remain committed to supporting Woodbridge.

“This community is very special to us,” she said. “Vito serves as president of the Special Improvement District; I am on the Board of Directors of the Metro Chamber of Commerce and actively involved with the Women’s Leadership Connection. Attracting new housing and retail is better for business overall, and Avenue & Green is the flagship for Woodbridge’s downtown redevelopment. We look forward to seeing what the future will bring.”

“Vito Mazza has a well-earned reputation for outstanding client service and giving back to the community," said Robert Fourniadis, Prism Capital Partners’ senior vice president of residential. "We are thrilled they chose Avenue & Green as their new home, maintaining their long-time presence in downtown Woodbridge while enabling us to bring a sought-after service right to our residents’ doorsteps.”

Avenue & Green has:

• A resident lounge with a fireplace, bar area, billiards and a shuffleboard table.
• A state-of-the-art fitness center and kitchen/catering accommodations, adding to the "lifestyle experience."
• A resort-style outdoor pool and landscaped courtyard with private BBQs
• An outdoor dining
• Fire pits
• A film screening area

Nutley-based Prism Capital Partners is a privately held developer that owns Avenue & Green in Woodbridge, The Nell in Dunellen, a mixed-use, transit-oriented apartment community; Wonder Lofts, the industrial-to-multifamily adaptive reuse of the former Wonder Bread factory in Hoboken; and Edison Lofts, the industrial-to-multifamily-and-retail redevelopment of the historic Thomas Edison Invention Factory and Commerce Center in West Orange.
