The new buildings are going for some real height that will rival most cities in the US, it is a really bold move for an area that is basically void of any tall building until just recently. We are basically seeing a small old urban neighborhood reinvent itself.

There are some seriously big changes coming to Jersey City, it makes me happy to have actually lived on that side of the river for a couple years when my wife and I got the crazy idea of living in NYC. We got to really experience a part of the NYC metro that most New Yorkers don't even know exists. There are so much potential in Jersey City, and we are finally seeing that happen.
