Fire officials say the flames began at Green Dragon Asian Cuisine. All businesses will be closed indefinitely amid cleanup and recovery efforts. At least two of the businesses, Flynn’s Barbershop and Green Dragon, began GoFundMe pages as they try to get back on their feet.

Flynn’s has already received over $29,000 at last check, while Green Dragon has raised over $5,000.

News 12 New Jersey’s Tony Caputo spoke with two of the business owners by phone Tuesday and is back on the scene this morning hoping to get updates.

Town and elected officials have said they’re doing everything they can to get this rebuilt as soon as possible.
