Actually the tallest of these buildings only end up measuring to somewhere in the 900 foot zone. It's 100 feet shy of 1,000 feet.

There are also two 80-floor rental buildings in Journal Square, a separate 67 floor rental building in Journal Square, and the developers of the three 70-floor towers have a massive amount of adjacent land that they want to develop. They could build a dozen towers on that site. Can you imagine if they build a dozen roughly 70-floor towers? That side of the Hudson will be insane. |
Thats kind of ugly...
|
What is up with the name? Height sounds promising, not so sure about those renderings though...
|
It looks a little weird , the blocks are all over the place..

So basically a similar thing to the ghastly but thankfully failed Museum Plaza from Louisville? Yeah, no thanks.
|
These Jersey City proposals are always exciting - the area continues to become a hot-spot, especially among the young Manhattan working crowd. I'm keeping an open mind with respect to the design. Those renders seem very preliminary and I'm sure more detailed ones will emerge.
|
Three messy, deconstructivist-lite tall towers will mar the JC skyline. I hope they come up with something better, and those are just placeholders. More traditional looking towers like GS, Merrill, and Trump look so much better than these.
|
:previous:..Awkward
|
Looks like the stacks of books that are scattered all over my apartment!
Yeah these can improve. |

I remember a proposal very similar to this one in that area of Jersey City, but the name of it escapes me right now. It'll come back...
|
I think it was that Koolhaas(Sp?) proposal........

I'm in the minority in that I actually think those renders look decent, although a little less grey and a little more metallic texture would be nice.
|
love the height and density, hate the renderings.
|
Disgusting looking proposal and stupid name. Seems like a fantasy proposal too. :cool:
I like the phase two of 70-90 Columbus with the two 48 floor towers much better. Seems much more realistic and is much better looking. Jersey City deserves better than this. |
This is breaking ground very shortly.
I think they're building one tower at a time, but not 100% sure. Still, three 70 floor towers will definitely change the skyline west of the Hudson. And the overall project could eventually be much, much bigger. Mack-Cali owns adjacent land that had been planned for office towers, but demand in Jersey City has shifted in favor of highrise residential. They could eventually have a dozen or so residential towers along the waterfront. |
