“Located at the nexus of some of New York’s most prized neighborhoods and within close proximity to the waterfront and an amazing selection of shopping, dining and entertainment options, we’re excited to welcome residents home to Greenwich West and enjoy everything the building and surrounding area has to offer,” said Philip Gesue, Chief Development Officer for Strategic Capital. “A building like no other in New York with its Parisian and New York design influences, Greenwich West continues to attract buyers from all over the world with its attainable pricing and value, prime downtown location and contextual design.”

In addition to closings commencing, and the return to in-person appointments and tours, the building is nearing completion and is set to unveil the amenities and first model residences later this fall. The collection of homes will be beautifully furnished in collaboration with leading home décor store Design within Reach (DWR), best known for their accessible modern design and sleek offerings.

The light-filled homes, ranging from studios to three-bedroom residences including penthouses, impart a bespoke quality and feature gently curved, hand-plastered interior wall corners to echo the building’s exterior architecture. A variety of residences feature substantial private terraces, including the collection of soaring penthouses that crown the top floors of the building, with only a handful remaining available for purchase.

“This moment marks a major milestone for Greenwich West, and we’re proud to see the building take its place on the skyline,” said Phillip Gesue, Chief Officer of Development at Strategic Capital. “Plaza Construction has done an incredible job of bringing our team of Parisian designers’ vision to life and the building’s rapid progress is a direct result of their hard work and dedication.”

Greenwich West’s 170 light-filled residences range from studios to three-bedrooms, including a collection of penthouses. Each home has been meticulously designed to offer an open floorplan and loft-inspired layout as well as a bespoke feel. The tower’s graceful setbacks create substantial private terraces that capitalize on Greenwich West’s hallmark river views.

“The rapid topping out of Greenwich West is a testament to the extraordinary efforts of our entire team of talented, designers, builders, and contractors,” said Craig Wood, CEO of Cape Advisors. “The team’s commitment to this project is demonstrated by the attention to detail and aggressive schedule that has enabled us to stay on track for completion in early 2020. We couldn’t be prouder of the work that has been done, and are excited to further introduce Greenwich West to the market as it progresses.”

“Building Greenwich West and seeing it rise to distinction as a formidable, one-of-a-kind luxury residential condominium featuring an abundance of light and openness is a source of pride for Plaza Construction,” says Richard Wood, Chairman and CEO of Plaza Construction. “As the project completes it will add a touch of elegance as it graces the Manhattan waterfront.”

Architecture firms Loci Anima and Adamson Associates designed a striking handmade brick façade adorned with custom glazed brick accents and Art Deco-inspired curved corners, which lend a softness to the tower. Industrial-style casement windows — framed by elegant hand-laid brick patterns and custom brick borders — salute the neighborhood’s heritage. Interiors designed by Sebastien Segers Architects — known for his elegant details across private homes, spas, and boutiques for clients such as Giorgio Armani and Christian Dior — echo the gentle curves of the exterior architecture, including deep undulating window-sills topped with Carrara marble that invite interaction with the windows and views, and custom kitchen islands featuring crafted “marine-edge”

Carrara marble countertops. World renowned botanist and landscape artist Patrick Blanc has designed a signature vertical green wall for the building’s courtyard Viewing Garden.

“This marks a major milestone for Park and Shore, and highlights how close we are to bringing this condominium development to life,” noted Phillip Gesue at Strategic Capital. “Park and Shore signifies a truly unique opportunity in Jersey City – it fuses Manhattan-quality design, a robust amenity package and premier location for incredible value – and is redefining the Newport neighborhood.”

Just under 40 stories tall and featuring 358 residences, 75 Park Lane provides buyers with the coveted experience of living in a high-rise tower with outstanding river views and resort-like amenities. Shore House, a boutique seven-story, 71-unit building inspired by the lofts of Tribeca, offers an industrial aesthetic and avant-garde design style. Both buildings are being constructed by Plaza Construction, one of the nation’s leading construction management and general contracting companies and the sister-company of Strategic Capital.

“The interiors of 75 Park Lane are inspired by the sophisticated legacy of American modernism, while Shore House is a grittier counterpoint, recalling the industrial brick past of this neighbourhood,” said Principal Wade Little. “We designed the whole complex as a collection of hospitality experiences. Amenities include an Olympic-size swimming pool, jacuzzi, spa, library, wine-tasting room, private dining room, putting green and a lavish health and wellness precinct, complete with sauna and pool with views of nature. The Sky Lounge, with a chef’s table and terrace, commands wonderful views of the New York skyline.”

Gerald Gendreau, AIA, Senior Associate and building architect, said, “Woods Bagot is thrilled to have had the opportunity to design Park and Shore. The two buildings are unified by common materials: naturally colored metal and terracotta frames that visually connect the buildings to the adjacent public park. We designed the exterior in keeping with the scales of the buildings: 75 Park Lane is comprised of an interlocking series of two-story frames with floor-to-ceiling glass, while Shore House, the lower building, features staggered, single-story frames. 75 Park Lane begins with a low-rise base that extends to the street face. Its tower is set back respecting the residential community scale and provides terrific views of Manhattan and the surrounding New Jersey landscape.”

“We’re excited to help realize the vision for such a significant project that is sure to redefine the Newport Skyline,” stated Christopher Mills, Executive Vice President for Plaza Construction. “Currently Plaza Construction has well over two million square feet of ongoing construction throughout Jersey City. Our firm is proud to bring our record of excellence to this project and to reach this important milestone, while keeping on schedule and on budget. We look forward to the successful completion of Park and Shore.”

In attendance at the top-out ceremony were China Construction America Chairman and President, Ning Yuan, Chinese Consul General in New York, Zhang Qiyue, Jersey City Mayor, Steven Fulop and Plaza Construction Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Richard Wood.

“We are excited to welcome Park and Shore to our Jersey City community, and know that this development will be an incredible addition to the City’s waterfront,” said Mayor Steven Fulop. “Today’s topping off ceremony represents and important milestone, and I look forward to cutting the ribbon on this building soon.”
Ambassador Zhang Qiyue said, “We are glad to see Strategic Capital deliver Park and Shore on schedule while adhering to a high standard in quality. I have no doubt that this condo development will further enhance the vibrant community of Jersey City, which has become home of more and more international students and talented young professionals.”
First closings at Park and Shore are slated to commence late 2018, and pricing for one-bedroom homes at both 75 Park Lane and Shore House starts at $640,000. The sales gallery is located at 100 Town Square Place in Jersey City, and for additional information please visit , or call 201.798.0008.

About Park and Shore
A hallmark of the development, Park and Shore has been designed with an exquisite selection of high quality materials that create a tranquil living experience for residents.

The oversized windows, made possible by the exceptionally designed window and curtain walls, showcase picturesque views of the nearby park, Hudson River, and distant mountaintops. Light and air flood living spaces, promoting wellness and happiness.

Wide-plank wood flooring, by Swedish wood flooring firm Kährs, helps to create a timeless aesthetic and a grounding atmosphere for residents. Specifically, the white oak floors in 75 Park Lane offer a feeling of elegant modernity, while the walnut floors in Shore House evoke a subtle sense of luxury.

75 Park Lane’s master baths embody a thoughtful and sophisticated design approach, illustrated through the use of eastern white marble floors and walls delicately contrasted by a Tundra Grey feature wall. The master baths at Shore House stylishly pair white begonia floors and walls with Venetian bronze accents.

In addition to the homes themselves, all other aspects of Park and Shore have been meticulously designed with exceptional materials and finishes. Stepping into Shore House, its hip yet intimate aesthetic become instantly clear through the ship-lapped oak plank walls, blackened steel feature wall and industrial Edison bulbs. Residents at 75 Park Lane are peacefully greeted with Blue de Savoie marble floors and columns of chiseled Inca Gray Basalt warmed by fluted Walnut wood panels.
