Newport Shore North Tower

This will likely be the last update of Newport's Shore Club since Newport's rent-a-cops sent us away claiming the street was private property and photography was prohibited. The nuances of private, public, and semi-public property are no doubt lost on minimum wage GED holders in uniforms, and arguing really isn't worth our aggravation considering the multitude of other interesting projects freely accessible in downtown Jersey City. Their sudden interest in our photography might be evident in the below photograph of the north tower-- bottom right is the base of the 31 story Aqua going in due East of the Shore Club:





Three floors left:

Newport's Shore Club complex is quickly moving towards completion with South tower residents moving in and glass rapidly racing up the sides of the North Tower.





Eventually a plaza will be completed in front of the Shore Club.



Glass is being installed on the North Tower. This photo was outdated hours after it was taken; glass has been installed on several higher floors already.

The Parking deck of Shore Club will include parking for new, yet to be built towers including Aqua.

The mid-rise section connecting the Shore Club's North and South tower will have a "River Market," a fancy way of saying retail shops, including a gourmet grocery.
