A striking new addition has arrived on the Jersey City skyline as leasing officially launches at The Greyson, located at 25 Cottage Street in the historic Journal Square neighborhood.
Developed by Nasser Freres with architecture and interiors by the renowned NYC-based Handel Architects, the eye-catching 29-story building introduces a massive collection of 622 high-end rental homes to the area. Apartments will be ready for occupancy in April.
The Greyson stands out on Cottage Street with its distinct glass, serrated-edge façade. The design undulates in and out to create bay-window-style projections, purposefully angled to maximize sweeping views of the waterfront and the Manhattan skyline.
The building offers a diverse mix of floor plans ranging from studios to three-bedroom residences. Apartments feature:
-
Generous 9-foot ceilings and full-height windows to flood the space with natural light.
-
Smart home access via electronic smart locks and convenient in-home GE washer/dryers.
-
Chef-inspired kitchens complete with quartz countertops, designer cabinetry, tile backsplashes, and premium stainless-steel appliances.
According to the property’s exclusive marketing and leasing agent, The Marketing Directors, residences are priced from the $2,700s. A limited-time grand opening incentive is currently being offered, allowing new tenants to secure up to two months of free rent.
The Greyson boasts multiple full floors of hospitality-inspired amenity spaces intended to foster wellness, creativity, and community connection.
On the lower levels, residents have access to a double-height, 24/7 attended lobby lounge with a baby grand piano. The wellness and entertainment features are extensive:
- A high-end spa with steam, sauna, and dedicated relaxation rooms
- A bowling alley, speakeasy, and children’s playroom
- Co-working hubs, content creation spaces, an art studio, and an on-site art gallery showcasing local artists.
- A pet spa equipped with both indoor and outdoor play areas.
Crowning the 29-story tower is a spectacular rooftop Sky Deck landscaped by Melillo Bauer Carman Landscape Architecture. The showpiece of the roof is the highest swimming pool in Jersey City, surrounded by landscaped observation terraces and outdoor BBQ setups.
The property is situated directly on Homestead Place, a newly developed, pedestrian-only plaza. The building’s ground-floor retail corridor will help activate the car-free pathway, which directly connects Newark Avenue to the Pavonia Avenue entrance of the Journal Square PATH station.
Positioned just two blocks from the transit hub, residents can quickly commute to Lower and Midtown Manhattan, Hoboken, and Newark via the PATH or tap into the extensive NJ Transit network.
“The Greyson provides a complete urban living experience in Journal Square,” Jackie Urgo, president of The Marketing Directors said. “From its modern residences to its elevated and thoughtfully integrated amenity spaces, it meets the needs of today’s renters who value convenience, connection, and quality design.”
