Trump Tower

The section of the tower where the crane was attached is beginning to get brickwork, starting at the base.



Along Morgan Street, the low rise base of the future tower appears naked without the higher components.



The parking deck is half built.



Along bay street, intimidating garage doors dominate the street:





Vents along Washington Street; the tower fails to integrate into the neighborhood without windows, doors or signs of life along Washington Street.

The Trump Towers complex has been steadily growing, though until this week was not much more than a gray mass of concrete. Finally, the form of a tower is beginning to pop out from the massive base of the building:

Trump Plaza

The Trump towers in Jersey City are aiming to be, at least for a time, the tallest residential towers in the state. Rising just outside the Powerhouse Arts District, the Trump towers will offer The Donald's unique style on the Jersey side of the Hudson. Below, the lower floors have been poured with Columbus Tower rising in the background.




The Trump Plaza towers are bound by Morgan and Bay Streets, just outside the Powerhouse District. Behind the lower floors of the Trump tower is the actual Powerhouse building.
