MHS Architecture is proud to announce a new high-rise mixed-use multifamily development at 425 Summit Avenue in Journal Square was recently approved by the Jersey City Planning Board. MHS has been working with the developer, Spitzer Enterprises, to create an elegant context-sensitive design for the landmark site. The project includes 349 residential units, 4,450 SF of ground floor retail space on Sip Avenue, 13,460 SF of indoor amenity spaces, an outdoor rooftop amenity deck, and a green roof. The views of Manhattan will be spectacular for this transit-oriented project which is only steps away from the Journal Square Transportation Center.

A true example of smart growth, these two towers embody 212 residential units, a compact parking garage, a school and retail at street level. The building also totes a LEED Gold certification. The creative, automated parking garage accommodates six levels of parking in a 3-story podium. Above the garage between the towers is a recreation deck. A green roof retains and diverts storm water away from the sewer systems. A composition of black and white brick and large windows create an exciting, modern look. The developer, Bijou Properties, and the city created Garden Street Mews, the first pedestrian plaza in Hoboken by closing the street to vehicles. It is used for a farmer’s market, art shows, and other community events. This unique structure exemplifies a transit-oriented development. Recent WINNER of the 2017 ULI Northern NJ Mixed-Use Project of the Year Award.

88 Regent Street is located on the northern edge of the Liberty Harbor North Redevelopment Area. 88 Regent Street holds a prominent position on the Jersey City skyline and the building will create an iconic entry into the neighborhood as a signature 32 story tower. This mixed-use multifamily maximizes views of Lower Manhattan by creating setbacks on the upper levels giving each unit a window facing the World Trade Center. The 12-story base matches the height of the adjacent buildings and then the amenity floor sets back to reveal a clear distinction between base and tower.

88 Regent Street is a major transit-oriented project and will make a strong connection to the train station with a public plaza that connects the lobby and retail of the building to the train station. This plaza will help calm traffic for people trying to get to the train station from the building and create a greater sense of arrival for the building.

With incredible views, 88 Regent will greet people with a public plaza, it will connect with its surroundings, and provide an iconic identity for the neighborhood to become the most desirable place to live in Liberty Harbor North.

Iconic Landmark In The Making
Transit-Oriented Development: Mixed-Use Multifamily Development

Bordering the burgeoning Bergen-Lafayette neighborhood in Jersey City, 270 Johnston is a new mixed-use 24-story residential tower that will become an iconic landmark signaling the gateway to Bergen-Lafayette. The east facade is pulled back featuring an open grillwork of residential balconies with magnificent views of Jersey City and Manhattan skylines. At grade the building transitions from the scale and rhythm of the adjacent two-story masonry townhomes to 24 stories encompassing 169 residential units, roughly 9,000 sf of commercial space,  10 parking spaces, and an impressive panoramic pool deck.

7 Seventy House is a transit-oriented mixed-use multifamily development that encourages public transportation ridership while advancing environmental, social, and economic sustainability goals of Hoboken. 7 Seventy House accomplishes this by incorporating stormwater management systems, by creating new public spaces and a pedestrian plaza as social destinations, featuring architectural design elements that maximize air and light, and by creating a safer environment by installing vehicle calming features. A distinct destination has been created while preserving the character and enhancing the quality of life in Hoboken, New Jersey.

Nine on the Hudson is a new 278-unit luxury condominium that derives its form from its location at the edge of the Hudson River. The saw-tooth V-form plan is designed to maximize direct views to Manhattan from all of the interior units. The south wing steps down to the river at a precise angle to allow sunlight to the pool deck and provides expansive green terraces with unparalleled Manhattan views.  Nine On the Hudson's distinctive architectural form playfully communicates with BIG’s VIA and Enrique Norten’s Mercedes House on Manhattan’s west side symbolically connecting Nine on the Hudson with its neighbors across the street, or in this case the river.

Gulls Cove is the first high-rise transit-oriented structure completed in the highly acclaimed “New Urban” community of Liberty Harbor North and is immediately adjacent to the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail stop in Jersey City. Modern metal cornices define the 430 residential units and 400 parking spaces are uniquely concealed within the structure. A rich stone base delineates the lower level of Gulls Cove’s 18,000 square foot retail space which embraces shops and restaurants.

MHS Architecture’s project at 80 Journal Square received The Jersey Planning Board’s approval. This 28-story skyscraper will be built next to Loew’s Theater in Journal Square at the site of the CH Martin store. This mixed-use building will deliver 400 units with 40 units being allocated as affordable. There would be 3,000 sf for ground floor retail, 17,730 sf of office space, and 13,825 sf of indoor amenities.⁠
⁠
The serrated exterior glass façade of the residential tower lifts to the third floor revealing the building's transparent commercial base, like a stage curtain. The base is set back 50 feet from the curb to create a magnificent outdoor plaza designed with a café to augment the theatergoers’ experience at the Loews. ⁠
⁠
Some of the commissioner's comments include:⁠
⁠
“What an incredible design and project. Loved the design. For sure, it’s a transformation, a great addition to Jersey City. The variances are justifiable. What a great job. I vote aye,” ⁠
⁠
“It’s an amazing project. I hope that it gets built soon. I’m proud to see that type of building go up in Journal Square,”⁠
⁠
“I have lived in the Journal Square area for more than 40 years. It looks fantastic. India Square is going to get the arches, and this area will look so well. I’m going to vote aye,” ⁠
⁠
“Great design. I think that public plaza is going to be a great addition. I certainly appreciate the affordable housing and the lack of PTAC units. I happily vote aye,” ⁠
⁠
The project was ultimately approved unanimously (5-0).⁠

There has been much anticipation for these two high-designed 15-story buildings situated between Sussex and Morris streets on Van Vorst Street in Jersey City. Located within one or two blocks are the Marin Boulevard Light Rail Station and the Liberty Harbor Ferry Terminal. These highly efficient, transit-oriented multifamily buildings provide direct access to New York City.

 

Offering views of lower Manhattan, the modest and polished architecture presents separate buildings which are connected by a well thought out pedestrian plaza incorporating amphitheater seating and plenty of trees for shade. Combined, the project will contain 408 residential units, 252 parking spaces and a generous amount of retail space spanning 14,542 square feet. By enhancing these residences with automated parking, charging stations, bike storage, clubroom, fitness center, dog run and sundeck residents can live, work and play. Was it mentioned there is also a roof deck kitchen and pool offering stunning New York City views?

 

MHS is thoroughly acquainted with this neighborhood. Just across the athletic field from the Van Vorst development is Gulls Cove, an MHS Architect’s project being built in two phases. In fact, MHS Architects were land planners for the Liberty Harbor North Redevelopment Plan which Gulls Cove is located within. One block east of the Van Vorst development is The Liberty Point Condominium, another strategically positioned transit-oriented building MHS Architects designed. And yet, another building sitting directly across the street from the Van Vorst project is the stunning Madox building.  Neighbors and developers have been and are still optimistic that these transforming developments with high-end architecture will attract even more empty nesters, urbanites and Manhattan’s millennials alike.
