The revitalized Jersey City waterfront continues to prove its magnetic pull for diverse industries as Cushman & Wakefield announced two significant new office leases at the iconic Harborside complex.
The transactions bring Matador Rare Coins and Xmondo Hair to the premier mixed-use destination owned by 601W Companies. The move highlights a growing trend of specialized firms seeking high-quality, amenity-rich environments to anchor their long-term growth and brand identity.
The two leases represent a combined footprint of over 10,000 square feet within the Harborside campus:
-
Matador Rare Coins: The high-value coin and precious metals trader has secured a 5,290-square-foot office on the 10th floor of 210 Hudson Street. The new location serves as a key component of the company’s regional expansion strategy.
-
Xmondo Hair: The vegan, cruelty-free hair care and color brand has leased 5,460 square feet on the 8th floor of 200 Hudson Street. The space will serve as the company’s new official headquarters.
Both tenants were drawn to the complex following its significant repositioning, which transformed the waterfront site into a modern, flexible workplace designed for a post-pandemic era.
“Tenants are increasingly drawn to environments that offer flexibility, unmatched amenities, and an engaging workplace experience,” Mina Shehata, executive director at Cushman & Wakefield, said. Shehata who represented both tenants in the deals.
Harborside offers unique advantages for growing firms, including:
- Unmatched Connectivity: Direct access to mass transit (PATH, Light Rail, and Ferry).
- Visual Appeal: Sweeping, unobstructed views of the Manhattan skyline.
- Lifestyle Integration: A curated mix of on-site retail, dining, and creative spaces.
The deals, brokered by Cushman & Wakefield’s Mina Shehata and David DeMatteis, underscore the resilience of the Jersey City office market, particularly for “Class A” waterfront assets. While Matador and Xmondo represent vastly different sectors—precious metals and beauty—both prioritized Harborside’s status as a “prime mixed-use destination” to welcome clients and support talent retention.
The landlord, 601W Companies, was represented by JLL in both transactions. As Harborside continues its evolution, the addition of these creative and specialized firms further diversifies the tenant roster of what has become one of the Northeast’s most dynamic urban office campuses.
