Journal Squared
Journal Squared is a three-tower mixed-use residential development that connects directly into Jersey City's PATH train.
Journal Squared is a 2.3 million sq.ft. residential development adjacent to the Journal Square Transportation Center in Jersey City and was one of the first large-scale high-rise residential developments to take advantage of the area's rezoning. The project includes three residential towers with 1,840 rental apartments, residential amenities, and ground floor retail. A new pedestrian plaza has been created which offers space for community events such as a weekly farmers market. Magnolia Avenue, which terminates at the site, has been redesigned to extend into the site as a shared street.
The massing of the towers steps back as it rises, clad with a grid of white metal panels and punched windows. Thin metal panels in various shades of blue flag the windows on alternating sides, while several large vertical strips of glazing run through the tower, breaking down the larger forms.

The site included surface parking and a handful of low-rise buildings.
As seen in this 2013 photo, the site abuts the Journal Square Transportation Center which includes a ten-story tower and a two-level parking facility. Low to mid-rise brick buildings run along Pavonia Avenue to the north of the site.
