New buildings replace old ones quite frequently, and skylines evolve. It isn’t very often that a development literally redraws the map, but that’s what has happened with Hudson Lights, located in downtown Fort Lee, N.J.
Construction has topped out on the three-story, 80,000-square-foot medical facility at 497 Broadway, located between West 23rd and 24th streets in Bayonne, N.J. Officially dubbed RWJBarnabas Health at Bayonne, it will feature an emergency department, pharmacy, pediatric center, and a women’s health center, among other uses.
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.
