Fulop Administration Announces $600 Million, Three-Tower Residential Project in Journal Square; Development will Kick-Start Revitalization in Heart of City

Mayor Steven M. Fulop address the attendance at his Ignaugural

JERSEY CITY – Mayor Steven M. Fulop announced today the administration’s plans to bring redevelopment to Journal Square, with a $600 million, three-tower residential project near the PATH station.
The project, by KRE Developers, will see three residential towers rise behind the Journal Square PATH station – on Summit Avenue between Pavonia and Magnolia Avenues. The three-phase project, called Journal Squared, will result in 1,840 market-rate units, as well as 36,000 square feet of retail space. Approximately 700 construction jobs will be created during each of the three phases, with ground expected to be broken later this year on the first phase.

“Jersey City residents have waited years, in fact, decades, for the revitalization of Journal Square,” said Mayor Fulop. “With this project, we will finally see real progress in Journal Square with a major residential development. We made a commitment that the success of development along our Hudson River waterfront would extend throughout the city, into areas like Journal Square and Bergen-Lafayette, and this project is the first example of how we are doing that. ” Continue reading Fulop Administration Announces $600 Million, Three-Tower Residential Project in Journal Square; Development will Kick-Start Revitalization in Heart of City →

RVO REAL ESTATE VIEWS: $2.8 Million Penthouse Purchase Sets Jersey City Record

77 Hudson Penthouse Condo goes for 2.8 Million in Jersey City
The Pool at 77 Hudson
in Jersey City

Jersey City, NJ, September 2013: 77 Hudson, K. Hovnanian’s® soaring 49-story residential tower on the Hudson River in Jersey City, has just achieved a new milestone. The sparkling blue-glass luxury high-rise building recently sold one of its few remaining unsold homes, a two-bedroom penthouse on the 48th floor, for a record-setting price of $2.8 million.

While the transaction marks the highest sale price ever paid for a residential condominium in Jersey City, according to Scott Waldman, 77 HudsonÂ’s broker of record, “It does not represent the top of the line at 77 Hudson. This record sale is not the highest-priced home in the building. However, it certainly showcases the stark comparison between our 2,100 square-foot penthouse and similar apartment homes just across the Hudson. A comparable 2,100 square-foot condominium on the west side of Manhattan would cost between $5-7 million, if you could find it. This is a testament not only to the quality and the desirability of the homes at 77 Hudson and our close-to-everything location, but also to the rebounding strength of the housing market in New Jersey. This spectacular building is nearly 100% sold – and our final penthouses are the crown jewel of 77 Hudson, with views that are just breathtaking.” Continue reading RVO REAL ESTATE VIEWS: $2.8 Million Penthouse Purchase Sets Jersey City Record →

Virtual tour of dream home simplifies the design process, sophisticated CNC equipment speeds construction

 

house 2 apsleycottagesmall

While building a custom home or vacation home has long been the dream of many couples, too often challenges in visualizing it, customizing it, or making changes have gotten in the way.  Or the design-build process has taken too long, with complications or hand-cutting materials on site delaying the project and unnecessarily raising costs.

 Fortunately, some of the most advanced timber frame and log home manufacturers are now simplifying the design process and expediting turnaround using technologies such as computer videoconferencing, 3D virtual home tours, and sophisticated automated prep and cutting of logs before the homes are constructed.  These advances are enabling customers to easily visualize and change home design – from significant layout changes to refinements such as raising or lowering a ceiling or window – which typically have been expensive and time-consuming to do after construction is underway.  Continue reading REAL ESTATE-YOUR HOME:Advanced, Custom Timber Frame and Log Home Manufacturers Make Design-Build Process Faster, Easier →
