Hartz Mountain Industries is opening the doors to a collection of 218 upscale apartments and amenity spaces that make up the final piece of its iconic Lincoln Harbor district in Weehawken.
The firm, which is based in nearby Secaucus, said it will soon welcome its first residents to the Reserve at Estuary at 1525 Harbor Blvd., following the launch of leasing on April 1. That will bring additional renters to the revitalized Hudson River waterfront, which includes the 60-acre Lincoln Harbor section that Hartz has been developing since the mid-1980s, creating a sweeping mix of homes, office space, retailers, restaurants and parks.
“Lincoln Harbor presented us with an extraordinarily rare opportunity to develop a prime tract of New Jersey’s Gold Coast,” Gus Milano, the firm’s president and chief operating officer, said earlier this year. “After four decades of hard work, we’re thrilled our vision is nearing its full realization. Our goal was to offer residents an urban lifestyle experience with unparalleled access to top-tier dining, transportation and vibrant neighborhood offerings. The Reserve at Estuary refines modern city living and combines elegance and convenience in one exceptional address.”
Designed by MHS Architecture, The Reserve at Estuary has a mix of floorplans ranging from studios to two-bedroom-plus-den units. Greystar oversees leasing and management at the property, where monthly rents start from $3,300.
A previous description of the building notes that it has an expansive glass facade intertwined with dark iron spot brick, along with cantilevering floors along the waterfront promenade. Those features give way to 218 homes with light-filled, open layouts and luxury finishes and appliances, some with private outdoor space such as a balcony, patio or terrace.

Amenities at the property span nearly 40,000 square feet and include a resort-style swimming pool, hot tub and sundeck, along with a fitness center, a game room and a coworking lounge. The building also has a rooftop entertainment lounge and a demonstration kitchen.
The opening of The Reserve at Estuary follows Hoboken Point, another recent Hartz rental project in Lincoln Harbor. Both properties benefit from the district’s many retail, dining and open space options, including the Whole Foods Market that is steps away, as well as a new community-driven retail concept that’s slated to open at The Reserve in early 2026.
Other amenities in Lincoln Harbor include the 18.5-mile Hudson River Waterfront Walkway that connects the George Washington Bridge to Hoboken, Liberty State Park in Jersey City and Bayonne, according to a news release. Residents also benefit from a host of mass transit options including the New York Waterway ferry to Manhattan, an on-site NJ Transit bus stop and the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail, as well as the nearby Lincoln Tunnel.
Hartz, meantime, noted that Lincoln Harbor has evolved from a business and dining district to a complete live-work-stay-play neighborhood with high-end apartments and popular restaurants such as Drift, Blu on the Hudson, Chart House and Ruth’s Chris Steak House, along with the Sheraton Lincoln Harbor Hotel and an expansive public park system that includes a dog park, the 400-foot Weehawken Pier and Lincoln Harbor Park.
