The Powerhouse Arts District of Jersey City is slated to get another tower with public streetscape improvements, as work has officially begun to bring a mixed-use development to the site of a former parking lot.<\/p>\n

Following approvals<\/a> that were granted in late 2024, construction has begun at 107 Morgan Street. The site, which spans almost an entire city block at 1.73 acres, was acquired<\/a> by LCOR in 2024 for $54 million from Veris Residential.<\/p>\n

The approved plans for the parcel were designed by SLCE Architects and landscaped by Melillo Bauer Carman. The project will rise to 34 stories and include a five-story base featuring an industrial look in keeping with the neighborhood\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

The remainder of the development, which will top out at 350 feet, will feature a black-brick fa\u00e7ade for a two-toned look. A total of 633 dwelling units are included in the plan, comprising 80 studios, 412 one-bedrooms, 134 two-bedrooms, and 7 three-bedroom residences.<\/p>\n

No affordable housing component is included in the development, as none is required under existing zoning. The street level at 107 Morgan Street will feature 19,635 square feet of ground-floor commercial\/gallery space split between three storefronts.<\/p>\n

In addition to retail, several public amenities will be built as part of the project. A mid-block open space of approximately 5,200 square feet, described as an \u201carcade,\u201d is set to include seating areas, a plaza, and public art exhibits, connected by a series of arches linking to the adjacent development to the east of the site.<\/p>\n

A total of 213 parking spaces in a garage will be included in the building\u2019s first five floors, while amenities for residents will consist of a sixth-floor roof deck and indoor amenity space, complete with an outdoor pool and amphitheater space, and a 34th-floor roof deck.<\/p>\n

LCOR is utilizing a bonus height provision in the neighborhood\u2019s Powerhouse Arts District Redevelopment Plan, and the community will soon see the benefits. The company was responsible for making improvements at the nearby 335 Washington Boulevard<\/a> property, which will eventually open as the Washington Creative Center. Jersey City\u2019s Council adopted an ordinance last year accepting the building from LCOR.<\/p>\n

An estimated timeline for the completion of 107 Morgan has not been announced. The project marks LCOR\u2019s second major undertaking in Hudson County, as the company is also behind the ongoing Hoboken Connect<\/a> project that is overhauling the city\u2019s train terminal while adding a new 27-story residential complex<\/a> to property just west of the transit hub.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A new high-rise is coming to 107 Morgan Street that will feature a new public plaza and significant…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":750323,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5122],"tags":[308918,5229,7236,308919,308920,405,403,5226,5225,5228,5227,70460,213108,67,586,132,5230,68,2969,262261],"class_list":["post-750322","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-107-morgan-street","tag-america","tag-downtown","tag-lcor","tag-melillo-bauer-carman","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-newyork","tag-newyorkcity","tag-ny","tag-nyc","tag-powerhouse-arts-district","tag-slce-architects","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-usa","tag-veris-residential"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116460899363163769","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/750322","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=750322"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/750322\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/750323"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=750322"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=750322"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=750322"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
