Right, but they must complete the sprinkler system and then have the city inspectors come back. Upon inspection, the city might find something wrong with the system, or something completely new that needs to be fixed. I bought a place in Washington Commons and in their case it was a flood pump. Before you know it the city has to come back 3 or 4 times- and it usually takes them a while to get an appointment. It took them 6 months to get it right.

With new construction or renovations there are always delays. I have been delayed greater than 6 months a few times. It is how bad you want the condo/is it a good investment vs how long can you reasonably wait. You have only been waiting since Septmber so it really isn't that bad. It is probably the city's fault with inspection delays/etc.

What?s ahppening with the 111 first street builing? Nothing, the powerhouse across the street will most likely be renovated first, which will take years. Right now the city has to tackle the issue of moving the substation currently on the site.
The Eclipse? Nothing right now, perhaps credit crunch effect. Is Trump buikding getting a 2nd tower? Eventually, once the first tower is sold out, which is now about 80% sold.

This is great news. Thanks for the update Steve. Christopher Columbus is important as it serves as the entranceway to JC for all of those who take the NJ TPK. It will be amazing to see what some streetscaping will do to Newark as well.

My suggestion is to drive around at night and check it out. It isn't the worst but not really safe to walk home late at night(check out all the surrounding streets because there are some not so nice blocks just west of there)

What ever happened to the blight study results for the strip between Newark and Columbus where the mural is? I hope they knock all of that down...... and planting a few trees down Newark might help too.

This is not the last waterfront building in JC. There is more buildable land/piers north of Newport. Lipzilla not sure if you have inside scoop but I thought the condo/rental determination had not been made yet.

I think it is interesting how this post, the one about Wayne street, and some others in Crime and Safety are all posted by brand new jclisters with 1 or 2 posts. Is it the incident that drives them to the site? Or are these Hoboken Realtors?

You wouldn't want to threaten anyone. That could only make things worse.

I agree, the more gyms the better. I go to NYSC now and the one by Exchange Place gets really crowded. This will help alleviate that hopefully. One thing that Brick Haus doesn't look like it will have is windows. I am a big proponent of well lit gyms (preferably natural light). Club H will have some nice windows.

I agree with the scatterbrained service. The food was delish and the decor is one of the best in jc. The restrooms are also very clean. The prices are probably driven up because it is a relatively large space. I wonder what their rent is.

I wonder if this store will also close at night/weekends like Au Bon Pain. It would be nice if it stayed open but I guess the foot traffic at that time is low over there.

Trump will build the second tower, it is just a matter of when. There is a certain % sold they need to hit in the first tower. Right now I think they are at about 50% (not sure what the green light % is for the second tower but they have already paid the 1+ million for the tax abatement on it). The Shore Club followed a similar model.
Overall I think construction will keep pace with the buyers and we will see an overall increase in property value each year, but obviously not as robust as we have seen in years past. A few percentage points plus tax breaks still makes it worthwhile to buy.

preliminary sketches were released a while back. you can check some of them out on jcvibe.com
just mixing the brick base with a tower will be challenging. the tower itself might be an architectural feat as the base, but together not so cute methinks. hopefully i will be proven wrong.

they are required to save the bricks and use them in construction of the base of the new structure. you can see on site they are wrapping them up in bundles. so i am thinking brick structure on bottom that resembles a semi-historic structure, with hideous glass tower looming over the base. i just hope it has some retail or art space on the bottom. it was supposed to get a performing arts space so we will see. no plans yet though they should be released soon.
