Myneni and Sons, LLC has applied to build a mixed-use building at 678-690 Grand Street, stretching from Westervelt Place to Ivy Place. A legal notice from the Jersey City Zoning Board of Adjustment shows that the building proposal calls for a five-story structure. Should it be approved, there will be retail and commercial space on the first floor, and 60 residential units on the upper floors. 10% of the units in the building will be dedicated to veterans? housing for 15 years, the notice states, and there will also be a parking garage for residents containing 65 spaces.




The lot where the project is proposed for currently sits vacant. Part of the land along Westervelt Place previously contained Luigi?s Flats Fixed and General Mechanic, which has since moved to Fairmount Avenue, until the building was demolished several years ago. Myneni and Sons acquired the tracts, which provide views of the Jersey City and Lower Manhattan skylines, last year, according to NJ Parcels records.
