Unbuilt
Rising as a crisp, rectilinear landmark along Johnston Avenue, the tower presents a taut bronze-toned skin punched with a finely calibrated grid of floor-to-ceiling windows that glow after dusk. A crystalline, faceted void is carved from the building’s east face, creating stepped winter-garden terraces that funnel daylight deep into the interior while framing unobstructed views of the Manhattan skyline. The podium folds seamlessly into the streetscape with an active, glazed base and a landscaped roof deck that doubles as an elevated communal garden. Together, the rigorous façade rhythm and sculpted glass notch give the unbuilt project a quiet monumentality—one that both anchors its low-rise context and signals Jersey City’s continuing evolution toward a vibrant, vertical future.
