Downtown Jersey City’s 10 Provost Street can easily impress even the most experienced buyer with its collection of amenities and central location within the Powerhouse Arts District, but this new construction condominium building also offers the astute resident serious design for a classic aesthetic.
Toll Brothers City Living collaborated with New York City-based Bernheimer Architecture on a tactile material approach and affecting that sense of touch are a variety of textures — natural wood, rough stone, and smooth tile. The intent becomes an instant classic, lending timeless sophistication to contemporary open floor plans and common spaces.
The perceptible quality of 10 Provost Street starts with its exterior of oil-rubbed bronze corrugated paneling next to red brick and gleaming glass. Inside, the lobby and elevator banks are clad in contrasting Alaskan honed stone for a striated uneven surround while the 24-hour lobby attendant stands behind a beautiful solid wood desk.
Herringbone-patterned stone elevator landings blend into simple tasteful corridors which lead to the natural wood apartment door. All the wood used throughout is simply sealed, not stained, allowing the sturdy subtle grain of the walnut and oak to shine.
Residences offer spacious studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom floor plans. Floors are a warm but neutral white-washed oak which echoes a townhouse vernacular on a larger scale. The kitchen design is a nod to mid-century modern with the warm tones of honey wood accented with dark bronze hardware. Caesarstone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and chrome Kohler fixtures finish off the space.
Baths also feature a juxtaposition of textures with walnut vanities topped by cool Caesarstone and a mix of stone and tile in calming spa-like tones of grey and white. And the second full bath in larger residences adds a little excitement for the eye with a hex tile.
Toll Brothers City Living achieved great success with a similar aesthetic at 100 Barrow in Manhattan which was the inspiration for 10 Provost Street, plus a hint of industrial to mesh well with the Powerhouse Arts District.
Two entire floors of the building are dedicated to resident amenities. The 7th floor lifestyle center includes an adapted co-work where natural wood divides the space into different types of seating, conducive to either working, socializing, or lounging, as well as outdoor seating, grills, and a fireplace.
The gym is modeled after a spa where rich perforated brass, warm natural walnut, and lots of light create a serene wellness retreat. An outdoor swimming pool, children’s play area, dog run, and pet spa complete the collection of amenities.
On the top floor, the 28th floor Sky Lounge includes a chef’s kitchen and wows with uninterrupted views of Jersey City and NYC and an outdoor terrace that is the most romantic rendezvous in town.
Toll Brothers City Living, America’s Luxury Home Builder, guarantees quality construction, and 10 Provost Street’s classic design coupled with the convenience of the Powerhouse Arts District and the opportunity to own a timeless residence with awe-inspiring amenities is an obvious choice.
