Wow, that building is awesome. Jersey City already has a great skyline and it will be getting much better in the coming years.

That's pretty much the way it appears from Jersey. You'd be surprised at the number of people in Jersey who don't know those towers are actually on the Jersey side of the Hudson. Then again, Jersey City is somewhat detached from the rest of the state, both physically and mentally. The same can be said for a few communites north of it, including Hoboken.

wow, lets hope this project gets done. one of the nicest i have seen proposed for the east coast . New York Harbor will get a Hong Kong like effect with two curtains of skyscrapers flanking the harbor. nice !!

Here are some statistical facts about the NYC region:

Jersey City population: 239,097 in city and 21,903,623 in metro
New York City population: 8,143,197 in city and 21,903,623 in metro

According to the source, both Jersey City and New York City share the common 21,903,623 in metro - meaning that Jersey City is indeed a part of the New York City region.

After the end of the slump that just started ?
(Sorry if that was harsh, but it's true...)

There's a slump? Someone needs to tell my office and contractors then- we can't hire enough people.....

Fabb · #30 Posted **Oct 8, 2006, 9:51 AM**

I knew that many of us would be in denial. Like I said, it's just the beginning of a slump.

mczamalek · #31 Posted **Oct 8, 2006, 9:56 AM**

I'm not understanding- elaborate.....

Easy.
The boom of the global real estate market is over. Sales are slowing down, prices are starting to decrease. I guess that Jersey City will be no exception.

Well, seeing as how Jersey City is practically in Manhattan, there's no surprise there...

Holy crap, I'm impressed!

Thefigman · #36 Posted **Oct 10, 2006, 11:40 AM**

With these developments, and the ones happening on the Brooklyn side of the river, there will be almost no way to distinguish the individual points on the skyline from the views in central NJ.

Well, except for the WTC when that is finished. That would stand out anywhere!

Really nice photos!

TechTalkGuy · #39 Posted **Oct 15, 2006, 3:49 PM**

Thanks Jularc!

Anyone living in those highrise towers in Jersey City get amazing Manhattan views.

Thefigman · #40 Posted **Oct 15, 2006, 11:53 PM**

To think that is in essence 2 IFC cut in half.
