Jersey City is changing by the minute, and it’s no secret that living downtown is getting pretty pricey for most people, especially for those who would like to live in a luxury building with amenities.  There’s a lot of attention being given to the Journal Square neighborhood lately and it’s growing as a residential destination with its own vibe while offering a more affordable alternative to living downtown.

Want to live in a luxury building without the crazy downtown prices? Well 25 Senate Place is here. A beautiful residential building that recently opened across the street from MANA Contemporary in Jersey City’s burgeoning Journal Square Arts District. The best part in my opinion? Modcup will open a Café on the ground floor. I am selling my home and moving here…yes the coffee is that good FYI.

Featuring 265 uniquely-designed rental residences, upscale amenities and a soon-to-open Modcup roastery and café, 25 Senate Place delivers a modern living experience to the neighborhood’s mosaic of repurposed warehouses and growing arts scene.

“It seems like every urban area on a cultural upswing is compared to Brooklyn, but Jersey City, with its influx of new arts venues, street performances, restaurants, boutiques and coffee houses,  really is on a similar trajectory,” said Art Johnson, Managing Director of Senate Place Urban Renewal, which developed 25 Senate Place.  “It’s an atmosphere that appeals to a cross-section of people, and one that has been taking root in our location.  We’re excited to now add a new luxury residential option to the mix which places residents in the heart of a developing arts district.

What’s in the neighborhood?

Designed to embrace the fabric of the neighborhood while drawing new residents to the emerging location, 25 Senate Place features a five-story design with a brick façade with metal accents that enhances the streetscape, and a collection of well-appointed residences with unique and varied floor plans to meet a variety of needs.

So how much do these luxury apartments go for?! Studios, one-bedroom apartments, one-bedroom-plus-den floor plans and two-bedroom duplex lofts with coveted outdoor space, are offered at monthly rents starting from $1,695!!!!
