Development

The towers rising in Jersey City’s Journal Square may soon have a new neighbor. A new two-tower project at 808 Pavonia Avenue could feature over a thousand units and a museum.

Last year we predicted 2016 would bring unprecedented development to Jersey City. As it turns out, that’s exactly what happened. If 2016 was the year of planning projects, 2017 is the year of breaking ground.

Plans are moving forward for a new parking, office, and commercial facility in Downtown Newark.

Earlier this month, the much-anticipated Journal Squared tower began leasing, ushering in what many predict will be the rebirth of Journal Square. Now, a lesser-known project, just across the plaza, is also preparing its leasing program.

An old brick structure right in the center of Downtown Hoboken will soon be replaced with a modern, mixed-use building with supersized apartments and retail space.

The Jersey City Redevelopment Agency has filed a lawsuit over a vacant warehouse at 125 Monitor Street as part of their ongoing effort to see residential reuse of the building.

A new plan to transform a former Jersey City fire station on Palisade Avenue into residences sounds like it will soon move forward.

According to a public notice published last December from Hudson County Planning Board, a six-story building "for the purpose of sales, storage, and servicing of classic collectible cars" has been proposed for North Bergen.

With an eye to the past and one foot in the future, Sterling Properties and Greenwood Development have received the green light on The Vestry, a boutique rental community of 46 units in downtown Montclair.

With another new residential project approved, a largely industrial corridor in the Bergen-Lafayette neighborhood of Jersey City is starting to see a transition to a more residential neighborhood.
