Columbus Plaza, Windows, Sidewalks

The Columbus Tower exterior work is wrapping up now workers are moving on to the mid-rise segment extending west from the base. Window framing is going now.

Columbus Tower in Jersey City is similar to New York's Zebra building. The midrise section is now the focus of attention as the exterior of the tower is nearly complete



Glass goes in on the north east corner of the plaza:





Framing for the sidewalk and the curb is laid out in front of the main entrance to the tower:

Columbus Tower will provide luxury rentals in Jersey City's downtown

Shops should eventually fill the street side of the mid-rise level, with parking included behind.









At the corner of Columbus and Warren:



A single story juts out over the corner of Stueben and Warren Streets; an odd edition to the building, is it a housing unit or common area?







What we assume will be the main entrance:
