Construction is now six stories above street level on the first of two 15-story, mixed-use buildings under development at 207 Van Vorst Street, in Jersey City’s Paulus Hook section. Work, presumably excavation, has also begun on the second building. Fields Development Group is the developer and Marchetto Higgins Stieve Architects is behind the design.
HOPES CAP Inc., a non-profit organization that operates pre-kindergarten education programs for children living below the poverty line in New Jersey, is constructing a four-story expansion adjacent to its headquarters at 301 Garden Street in Hoboken. The project is currently a single floor above street level. The expansion will house three classrooms as well as additional office space for the organization.
A rendering has been revealed of the planned 15-story, 113-unit mixed-use building at 87 Newkirk Street, in the Journal Square section of Jersey City. The project will measure 129,500 square feet in total, featuring 5,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space, followed by 21,500 square feet of co-working space on the second and third floors. The residential units above will be rental apartments configured in studios and co-living suites with multiple bedrooms.
A rendering has been revealed of the New Community Corporation’s planned two-story, 24-unit supportive housing project at 93-101 14th Avenue, located in Newark’s Central Ward. All of the project’s apartments will be studios housing homeless individuals suffering from mental illness, Jersey Digs reported. The building, called A Better Life, is receiving financing from various local, state and federal agencies and organizations. Jersey City-based LWDMR Architects is behind the architecture. A groundbreaking ceremony was recently held at the site, which has long been vacant, and completion is expected next year.
Construction is close to kicking off on the six-story, 138-unit residential building planned at 18 East 21st Street, on the southern end of Bayonne. That’s in Hudson County, New Jersey. Dubbed 19 East, it will contain luxury rental apartments ranging from studios to two-bedrooms. Amenities will include a fitness center, two rooftop terraces, a business center, and a 212-car parking garage on the bottom two floors. A plaza will be built on the plot’s frontage along Broadway. Ingerman Development Company is the developer. Completion is expected in early 2018, Jersey Digs reported. Much of the seven-parcel assemblage was vacant with the exception of a three-story apartment building, which has since been demolished.
