Urby has officially opened leasing at Journal Square Urby, introducing 317 brand new apartments to one of Jersey City’s most dynamic neighborhoods.
The handsome 25-story tower, located at Pavonia and Summit Avenues, directly across from the Journal Square PATH station, is now welcoming residents. Thoughtfully crafted with modern living in mind, Journal Square Urby reflects the brand’s commitment to blending imaginative design and hospitality to create an environment full of vibrancy and community.
“Journal Square Urby offers a lifestyle centered on culture, comfort, and connection,” says David Barry, Founder and CEO of Urby. “We’re excited to welcome new residents to the heart of Jersey City’s vibrant Journal Square neighborhood.”
Journal Square Urby is the seventh Urby property to open nationwide and second in Jersey City, arriving amidst Journal Square’s vibrant renaissance. A surge of new residential, retail, cultural, and culinary offerings has transformed the neighborhood into a lively destination. Just minutes from New York City via the PATH train, Journal Square Urby sits at the intersection of connectivity and community vitality.
Innovative Social Spaces
Located at 532 Summit Avenue, Journal Square Urby introduces a host of energy-infused public spaces. Highlights include a public café integrated into the lobby slated to open later this year, and a huge, state-of-the-art fitness center with an adjoining yoga studio that hosts regular resident fitness classes, a heated rooftop pool, a lush roof garden complete with BBQ grills, a parlor for private events, a range of work from home spaces, and a dog park. The roof garden, work from home space, and many of the apartments also provide panoramic views spanning Downtown Jersey City, the Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty, and the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge.
Apartments Designed for Comfort and Style
Journal Square Urby features studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments thoughtfully designed to offer bright, airy spaces optimized for modern living. Oversized windows with custom blinds flood the interiors with natural light and maximize city views. Wide plank floors, upscale kitchen finishes, and select units with private terraces further elevate the living experience. Residents also enjoy smart home technology such as Latch keyless entry and Amazon package lockers.
Future Forward Design
Journal Square Urby is designed by Concrete, the acclaimed Dutch firm behind citizenM Hotels, with HLW serving as the Executive Architect. The tower’s bold form features three distinct masses that complement the scale of the surrounding neighborhood.
Adding an artistic edge to the property is a striking 25-story mural by renowned artist Felipe Pantone, commissioned by Urby. Known for his kinetic artwork that explores themes of transformation and digital revolution, Pantone’s mural infuses dynamic energy into the Jersey City skyline, and serves as his largest piece to date.
Monthly rents start in the $2,800’s, and grand opening leasing specials are being offered for a limited time. Immediate occupancy is available. Journal Square Urby also offers furnished apartments for flexible term stays of 28 days or longer.
