Paramus mayor confirms new Costco coming to town on Route 17

"

A new Costco will be built in Paramus near Route 17 and Route 4 – the location of the old Stop & Shop, according to the town’s mayor. Mayor Chris DiPiazza says that Costco Wholesale submitted their plans to the Paramus Planning Board Thursday morning. The plans do not include a Costco Gas Station, according to the mayor. “This location in its heyday was home to two major retailers/supermarkets, along with a few other smaller retailers and a bank,” DiPiazza wrote in a statement . “An improvement like this strengthens our commercial corridor, increases ratables, and continues to make Paramus the heart of Bergen County.” The Stop & Shop closed in 2022.
