Renderings have been unveiled for Avalon Tower, a proposed 70-story residential skyscraper slated for Jersey City. The 722-foot tower will contain 950 residences, including 505 studio apartments, 265 one-bedroom units, 160 two-bedroom units, and 20 three-bedroom units.
The tower complex is designed by Gerner Kronick + Valcarcel Architects, New York YIMBY reports. Sculpted as an L-shaped tower, the design for the skyscraper features a lower section that rises 575-feet high. This portion of the tower is topped with an outdoor terrace and swimming pool. The entire complex will sit beside a new six-story parking structure containing 382 parking stalls and 17,192 square feet of retail spaces. A pair of mid-rise residential towers currently occupying an adjacent site owned by the same developer, Tower Cove Jersey City Urban Renewal, will remain.
The towers feature gridded glass, steel, and aluminum facades.
The tower is set to become one of the tallest skyscrapers in Jersey City, falling less than 200-feet below the 900-foot 99 Hudson Street project designed by Perkins Eastman located nearby. Construction on the 99 Hudson project is nearly complete, while a constructions start date for the Avalon Tower project has yet to be unveiled.
