While a key attraction of Jersey City is its convenient access to Manhattan and comparably more approachable prices, a local building boom shows no sign of slowing down and makes for a robust scene closer to home. That is especially evident in the Bergen-Lafayette neighborhood, where new rental The Hazel, located at 89 Monitor Street, has launched leasing. With its gray and green brick facade and floor-to-ceiling windows, the design by Fogarty Finger Architects pays tribute to the neighborhood’s industrial history. However, the interiors and amenities were designed with the modern renter in mind.
Initial occupancy is scheduled for February 15, and rents start at $2,290/month. This is net effective to reflect a grand opening special of up to one month free rent on select lease terms.

The Cove JC (Ennead Architects)
Monitor Street is located within Jersey City’s Morris Canal Redevelopment Zone, and the area has been living up to that name. Last spring, plans were announced for The Cove JC, a 13-acre mega-development set to bring a life science and tech hub, a waterfront park, and over 1,500 new housing units aiming for WELL Building Standard certification to the neighborhood. In fall 2021, a groundbreaking ceremony took place for SciTech Scity, a community of lab space, a new K-12 school, a five-acre outdoor park, and two buildings of residential housing dubbed Scholars Village; Liberty Science Center was awarded redevelopment rights for the land, and completion of the first phase is estimated for 2023.
“This neighborhood continues to attract new residents who see it as an alternative to the towering high-rises and congestion of Downtown Jersey City” - Bill Rosato, Managing Partner, Alpine Residential
Additionally, a residential building boom has taken hold in recent years. Across the street from The Hazel, Solaris Lofts rose on a lot that sat vacant for 40 years. Eight-story rental BELA took shape on the block corner, and 295J is around the corner. These buildings seek to make the most of proximity to Liberty State Park, Communipaw Avenue shopping and dining, and the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail Liberty Park stop.

295J's address near the Liberty State Park light rail station, the Liberty Harbor Ferry, and the Grove Street PATH station allows for an easy trip all over Jersey City and into Manhattan. But a suite of amenities like concierge service, an Amazon package locker, a fully equipped fitness center, The Study workspace, a rooftop dog run, and a tree-lined courtyard with an outdoor pool, grills, fire pits, and table tennis means leaving the building might turn out to be entirely optional. All studio through three-bedroom units feature high ceilings, hardwood floors, modern kitchens with custom cabinetry and Whirlpool appliances, ample storage space, and in-unit washer/dryers.

Solaris Lofts' design was inspired by the warehouses of yesteryear, but the solar installations are in line with today's environmental concerns.
