Jersey City's 235 Grand Street is renting from $2,654/month; Amenity-packed 46-floor tower has bountiful views

In recent months, Ironstate Development Company and the KRE Group have launched preview leasing at 235 Grand Street, the latest rental property to arrive in booming Downtown Jersey City. HLW Architects are behind the design for the prominent, 46-story tower, where panoramic vistas open in every direction from the building's 549 units. Marketing materials illustrate a wide range of amenities, decked out by the interior designers at Bentel & Bentel.

Despite its 15-minute proximity to Lower Manhattan, the rents run at a significantly lower rate than comparable offerings across the river. According to 235 Grand's official website , current availabilities start at $2,654 for studios, $3,023 for one-bedroom units, and $4,611 for two-bedroom apartments. Some prices shown take into consideration one month of free rent.

The tower marks the junction of Grand and Grove streets in Paulus Hook, where the ever-growing skyscraper district at Downtown meets a charming neighborhood of brick-faced rowhomes, steep front stoops, and tree-lined sidewalks. The area is noted for its vibrant array of cafes, corner shops, and restaurants.

235 Grand contributes to the pedestrian bustle with ground-level retail, while its multi-story garage negates the need to circle the block in search for parking. Residents who prefer mass transit can rely on the nearby Grove Street PATH Station, the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail trolley, and the NY Waterway ferry, which put Manhattan, Downtown Jersey City, Hoboken, and Newark within an equal commute.

The tower’s location at the skyline’s southwest corner provides unobstructed views in all directions, with the Morris Canal Basin Marina, Liberty State Park, and the Statue of Liberty to the south, the skylines of Journal Square and Newark to the west, the Palisades-bound Gold Coast town to the north, and the skylines of Jersey City and Downtown Manhattan on either side of the Hudson River to the east. The prominent position, paired with panoramic, floor-to-ceiling windows, ensures ample sunlight in every apartment, regardless of the season.
