Supporters of a proposed casino in Jersey City plan a press conference to promote the amendment sometime in the next couple weeks, according to state Sen. Raymond Lesniak (D-Union), who is pushing the plan.
Lesniak said the press conference for the "Liberty Rising" project — spearheaded by Boston sneaker mogul Paul Fireman and proposed for an industrial patch of Jersey City's waterfront next to the golf course he owns — will be held not long after Hard Rock International and Meadowlands Racing and Entertainment unveil their plans for a Meadowlands casino next week.
...The Jersey City casino is expected to be bigger than the one planned in the Meadowlands, rising 95 floors and including a hotel and several other attractions on its grounds. It is expected to be more geared towards high rollers than the Meadowlands proposal.
"It is 10 times bigger than the Hard Rock. And both can co-exist because they'll attract different customers," Lesniak said.
While renderings for the casino have been shown to some lawmakers, they have not been released publicly.

Another supertall is planned for Jersey City. It's dependent on a casino and has a long way to go, but it's coming. It will join the 99 Hudson project. which tops out at 301m. It will soon break ground (if it has not already).
