Crystal Point condos - Jersey City waterfront

Crystal Point condos - Jersey City waterfront

The New Jersey District Council of the Urban Land Institute (ULI-NNJ) has named the Jersey City waterfront development Crystal Point its 2010 “Project of the Year.” The high-rise condominium project, along with other winners of ULI-NNJ’s sixth annual Land Use Awards, will be honored at a December reception.

The awards recognize “leadership in the responsible use of land and in creating and sustaining thriving communities,” according to ULI-NNJ chair and Jersey City Redevelopment Agency executive director Robert Antonicello.

“Each of the award winners has taken steps beyond industry norms to advance goals of smart and sustainable development,” he says. “The winners show a commitment to successful development in New Jersey that is also mindful of societal goals.”

Crystal Point sits on 2nd Street at the Hudson River waterfront; the project caused a local stir when its developer, Fisher Development Associates, asked the city to sweeten its tax abatement last year. The City Council narrowly approved the move, which extended Fisher’s abatement an additional 10 years and reduced the percentage of revenue paid by almost half (to 10 percent) for the first five years.

The project’s goal is to “respect and enhance the livability and quality of life in the surrounding neighborhoods,” according to Brian Fisher, a principal of Fisher Development Associates. “[We wanted] to create a waterfront building that would be constructed responsibly, meet the city’s guidelines for the continued redevelopment of its downtown urban waterfront and kept the needs of the community-at-large in mind.”

Another Hudson County project is on the honoree list this year, with the newly opened Union City High School receiving the award for “Special Project of the Year.” Also being honored are Orange-based community developers HANDS, for its work on the Central Valley Redevelopment Arts Area; and Rutgers University dean James Hughes, who will receive the Edward J. Bloustein Award for Exemplary Achievement in Civic Leadership & Outstanding Educator of the Year. ULI-NNJ has not yet named the recipient of this year’s Public Official of the Year.

The cocktail reception honoring all award winners is slated for December 8, at 6 pm; at The Heldrich Hotel in New Brunswick. For more details on the event, click here.
