A 504-unit, mid-rise apartment community developed on one of the last significant parcels of land on the Jersey City waterfront. The project, consisting of two U-shaped buildings oriented to both the waterfront and the community, offers spectacular views of lower Manhattan and features one- to four-bedroom units. Standing in contrast to the existing high-rise residences on the waterfront, Avalon Cove creates variation and offers a more human scale while preserving views of the waterfront from nearby buildings. Developed and managed by Avalon Properties (now Avalon Bay), a self-administered and self managed equity real estate investment trust, Avalon Cove targets the high-end of the housing market with an abundance of amenities and an emphasis on high-quality service to residents.
