Street, the community will be less than a five-minute walk from the Journal
Square PATH Station. 35 Cottage is within 30 minutes of New York City's
Penn Station, The World Trade Center and Newark's Penn Station.
The complex
will be conveniently situated in Journal Square in the heart of Jersey
City, which has a low vacancy rate of 2.3% despite rising rents and an
increase in supply.
Jersey City's multi-housing market has
thrived thanks to the migration of office tenants from Manhattan, driving
up demand for housing options. The city's demographics are particularly
appealing, with nearly half of its households earning over $100,000
annually and a significant portion of the population being young
professionals between the ages of 25 and 44.
With the ongoing Journal
Square Transportation Center redevelopment initiative and these favorable
demographics, the neighborhood is well-positioned for sustained growth.
