Shore Club

The two tower condominium project in Newport is connected by a low rise base and has a shared parking garage. Five retail spaces are in the base of the building. The south tower was completed first with some work still left to do on the north tower. The Shore Club had spectacular views of the Hudson River and New York City for about 6 months before the 31 story Aqua tower rose immediately to the east of the Shore. Also available are past Shore Club Construction Photos

Marbella Tower

For now, the tallest residential tower in New Jersey, soon to be surpassed by the Trump Towers and 77 Hudson Street, both currently under construction, or the proposed Metropolitan, not yet approved. Not only is Marbella a particularly tall structure, but as there are no other buildings sharing its block, and the building overlooks the metro plaza parking lot, the height is accentuated.

The more southern and eastern of two twin buildings at the corner of Washington Boulevard and Newport Parkway, part of the Presidential Towers in Newport. The once uninterupted views of Manhattan are now being blocked by the under construction Shore Club at Newport.

These are two of the oldest residential towers in Newport and a rather iconic part of the skyline. Both are clearly visible from all approaches to the Holland tunnel, and so have come to define the skyline of Jersey City's waterfront.
