The first, Night Owl, will be located at 300 Bloomfield Avenue in Montclair, the site of the former DLV Lounge. The second, Kush Connection, will be located at 135 Valley Road in Montclair, across the street from Tierney's Tavern.
The dispensary is owned and operated by the Kushner family, who have been Montclair residents for more than 30 years.
“We still have to get through the zoning process, but once that is completed, we'll have everything we need to submit for final inspection by the state,” Jake Kushner told Patch earlier this week.
“Once that is completed, we will begin operations – most likely sometime around 2023's holiday season or early 2024 at the latest,” Kushner said.
Kush Connection will be selling a variety of “high-quality cannabis products” to recreational adult users, including flowers, edibles and concentrates. According to the company, its products will be sourced locally from New Jersey-based cultivators and manufacturers, and will undergo rigorous testing to ensure quality and safety.
