JERSEY CITY, NJ — Nasser Freres has broken ground on a new mixed-use development in Jersey City, marking the beginning of a $300+ million project set to deliver in-demand residential, commercial, and retail space to the heart of the historic and well-connected Journal Square neighborhood.
Rising at 25 Cottage St. just steps from the Journal Square Transportation Center, the development will include 622 rental residences, nearly 45,000 s/f of class A office space, ground floor retail, and a landscaped rooftop with a pool, lounge area, and views over Journal Square and across Jersey City. The collective elements will be housed within a 28-story tower designed by renowned Handel Architects.
The development, which is being built by AJD Construction, is scheduled for completion in first quarter 2026.
Principals of Nasser Freres welcomed Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop, fellow municipal officials and other dignitaries to celebrate the start of the multi-faceted project that is expected to further invigorate Journal Square and solidify its place as one of the most dynamic places to live in the New York metropolitan area.
25 Cottage St. builds on the substantial investment flowing into Journal Square, which is resulting in thousands of new residences, vibrant retail spaces, increased public areas, and restored cultural landmarks. These efforts are rejuvenating Journal Square as the residential, business, and artistic heart of Jersey City.
