Today, we wrap up our weeklong Jersey City update with a preview of Harborside 8, the most notable project on the drawing boards for the city. Designed by Elkus Manfredi Architects and developed by Roseland Residential Trust, a subsidiary of Mack Cali, the 68-story, 708-foot-tall residential skyscraper will stand as one of the tallest buildings in the state and make a profound impact on the skyline along the Hudson River.
A private developer has revealed proposals to construct a new five-story mixed-use building at 135-137 Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. If approved, the structure will comprise over 10,000 square feet and top out around 55 feet above ground.
Permits have been filed for a 20-story mixed-use building at 124 East 86th Street on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Located between Park Avenue and Lexington Avenue, the lot is steps from the 86th Street subway station, serviced by the 4, 5, and 6 trains. Rybak Development under the 126 East 86th Street Development LLC is listed as the owner behind the applications.
Following the successful resolution of recent litigation with Jersey City, a new design has been released for Kushner Companies’ planned two-towered high rise residential development at 1 Journal Square Plaza, in Jersey City‘s Journal Square. Also known as 1 Journal Square, construction is expected to break ground in 2021. The revised designs would add two major skyscrapers to the neighborhood’s growing skyline, both standing over 700 feet to their rooftops.
Construction has topped out on the MGM Marin Boulevard, a 41-story residential tower at 331 Marin Boulevard in Jersey City. Alternately addressed as 184 Morgan Street, the project is designed by Marchetto Higgins Stieve and is being developed by The Albanese Group, and will yield 482 units, 121 parking spaces, a 125-seat theater, and 14,000 square feet of amenities. The site is located within the Powerhouse Arts District, directly to the south of 351 Marin Boulevard.
