Jersey City’s Planning Board has approved LCOR’s proposal to redevelop a 7,000-square-meter parking lot at 107 Morgan Street into a 34-story mixed-use tower. The plan, designed by SLCE Architects with landscaping by Melillo Bauer Carman, features a dual-tone brick façade that reflects the area’s industrial history.
The building will stand 350 feet (107 meters) tall with 633 residential units, comprising 80 studios, 412 one-bedroom, 134 two-bedroom, and seven three-bedroom apartments. No affordable housing is included, as current zoning does not require it.
Amenities include a sixth-floor roof deck with a pool and amphitheater, a smaller roof deck on the 34th floor, and indoor amenity spaces. The first five floors will house a parking garage with 213 spaces. Ground-level retail and public spaces will span 19,635 square feet (1,824 square meters), including a 5,200-square-meter (483-square-foot) public “arcade” with seating, a plaza, and art exhibits.
LCOR leveraged a height bonus through the Powerhouse Arts District Redevelopment Plan and secured seven variances for zoning deviations. The company also completed improvements to 335 Washington Boulevard, paving the way for this project.
A groundbreaking date has not been announced.
