Back in January, YIMBY reported on the groundbreaking ceremony held for the planned 79-story, 781-unit mixed-use tower under development at 99 Hudson Street, in Jersey City. That’s located between Grand and York streets in Exchange Place section of the city. Pile driving and foundation work are now underway, as seen in photos posted to the YIMBY Forums. The 1.5-million-square-foot skyscraper, to stand 900 feet in height, will include 15,000 square feet of retail space and 14,000 square feet of public space, some of that in the form of a plaza. The plaza will be located on the corner of Grand and Greene streets. China Overseas America Inc. is the developer and Perkins Eastman is behind the design. Completion is expected in 2018, followed by occupancy the next year.

Brooklyn-based Yeshiva Amod Hatorah Inc. has filed applications for a four-story, six-unit mixed-use building at 1473 50th Street, in the heart of Borough Park. The project will measure 15,589 square feet. It will include a 3,650-square-foot religious facility on the ground and cellar levels, followed by six residential units across the second through fourth floors. The units should average 1,253 square feet apiece, indicative of condominiums. Ruslan Goychayev’s Brooklyn-based RSLN Architecture is the architect of record. The 40-foot-wide, 4,006-square-foot property is currently vacant. The 50th Street stop on the D train is three blocks away.

Façade work is in full swing at 27-21 44th Drive in Long Island City. The 27-story apartment building known as The Edison reached its final height in early June, when the national flag was hoisted atop its concrete bulkhead. At that point, the roughly 300-foot-tall structure became the tenth-tallest within the Court Square district, though taller neighbors rising nearby are already surpassing it. However, the building would remain highly visible thanks to its position at the epicenter of the resurgent neighborhood.

It will host 4,465 square feet of ground-floor retail and restaurant space, followed by residential units on the floors above.
