A soaring luxury condominium tower under construction in Jersey City recently became a showcase for the city’s vibrant public art scene, hosting a one-night gallery event that drew local officials, artists and other stakeholders.
Building boom, condo tower put Jersey City on the map in skyscraper study
The development boom along the Hudson waterfront has put Jersey City in rare company, making it one of only 18 U.S. cities with at least five skyscrapers. That’s according to a recent study of high-rise architecture by Yardi Matrix, a commercial real estate research and data platform, which also found that Jersey City currently has the fourth-tallest building under construction in the U.S. That project, 99 Hudson, is a 79-story luxury condominium tower that is slated to rise 889 feet when it opens next year.
