When Morristown NJ wanted to create a new loft-style building, the architect looked to SoHo New York where original cast iron loft buildings provided the inspiration. Since buildings are no longer made with cast iron, VM Zinc provided the perfect solution. The material’s versatility combined with the natural patina and permanence allowed for a modern interpretive and sustainable architectural response. VM Zinc’s extraordinary malleable properties allowed us to reimagine how classical façade details can be made. Contrasted with the silvery manganese ironspot brick, the Quartz Zinc oriel windows projects off of the building and creates a covered pedestrian arcade where pedestrians can experience the natural beauty of zinc close up.  The building contains 59 residential units and 3,500 SF of retail on the ground floor.

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. 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 creates 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.

With incredible views, 88 Regent Street provides an iconic identity for the neighborhood and has become the most desirable place to live in Liberty Harbor North.

Nine on the Hudson is a 278-unit luxury condominium multifamily 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.
