Public Space

Barely a month after announcing the proposal, Jersey City has moved ahead with plans to add car-free blocks to Downtown.

New Jersey Transit has started the initial $30 million portion of work on the historic Newark facility.

One of the most high-profile and prolifically delayed projects in Jersey City is slated to finally get off the ground in the coming months.

The revamped project, dubbed Hoboken Connect, calls for a 20-story office building, 389 residential units, and an overhaul of Lackawanna Plaza into a two-story market and public space.

Six Jersey City properties will be redeveloped into a mixed-use tower that will feature ground-floor retail along a future pedestrian plaza.

The Jersey City mega project, which includes a new public plaza, will feature two 64-story towers and has already reached a retail deal to bring a Target to the ground floor.

A 184-foot-tall development with several community givebacks could gain final approvals despite some sudden controversy over the building’s height.

After years of delays and legal wrangling, Jersey City’s planning board has greenlit a 1,723-unit development from Kushner Companies that looks to begin construction by mid-spring.

For all of its history, Jersey City has been a conduit for transport between NYC and the rest of the country. Over time, the logistics of transportation has changed leaving artifacts of a bygone era all over the city. Now the long forgotten Bergen Arches are the subject of a proposed community-based redevelopment project led by local residents and activists.

The $300 million Jersey City project will build a “mini-city” near Liberty Science Center -- see the new renderings here.
