JERSEY CITY | Projects and Construction thread

[citybooster]

Thanks, CIA... did not see that info about the base when I first looked. Yeah, love the diversity as well in the sizes... starts with a mid riser at 18 stories, then goes to high rise territory with 30, at least 400 ft with a 37 and 40, and probably 550-650 ft with the 51 and the 60. We'll get six individual buildings instead of cookie cutter replicas. I'm more of a fan of the appearance of the Bay Street towers than the 70/90 Columbus towers but yeah I agree they didn't need to do clones of each other in either case. I'm hoping the new One Journal Square twin towered project won't be cookie cutter replicas now that they both will be 77ft(thanks for nothing, FAA!) but 30 Journal Square(owned by the same Kushner side of the family now in laws with Trump and built the new second tower at Bay Street) will when constructed make a nice contrast even at a relatively similar height(72 stories, 799 ft if the FAA can keep it's hasty height chopping paws off it) because it definitely has a pretty unique style for Jersey City towers.

Speaking of Kushner projects, did the three towered Journal Squared also have to look alike? I do think the next one to be built, the largest at 759ft, will look fine and have a more prominent setbacked appearance especially on low to middle floors...but while I love the height the built out 53 story one finally gives Journal Square... aesthetically from most angles it's pretty darn boring.
