SIX-LEVEL PARKING GARAGE WITH INCOMPARABLE LANDSCAPED ROOF DECK OPENS AT THE BEACON IN JERSEY CITY

45,000 Sq.-Ft “Park” Adds to Extensive Green Space at Luxury Rental Community

 JERSEY CITY, NJ, – A new six-level parking garage offering 510 parking spaces and a 45,000 square-foot landscaped roof deck has opened at The Beacon, the community of luxury rental residences and incomparable amenities in Jersey City.

The new roof deck will instantly become the centerpiece of an already extensive collection of private pocket parks and open green space situated within the gated community.  This unique amenity features a distinctive entrance courtyard, seating, lighting, walking paths, flower beds, lawns and an overlook terrace offering breathtaking views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline.

“The completion of this parking garage and roof deck brings us closer to our goal of making The Beacon one of the greenest urban residential communities in the region,” notes Beth Polychrones, General Manager at The Beacon. “Our residents already enjoy substantial green space that includes a two-acre pocket park, a dog run, organic community gardens and a children’s playground. The new rooftop deck literally brings these desirable outdoor amenity offerings to new heights, creating an urban oasis of greenery and passive recreation for our residents right here in the heart of Jersey City.”

The Beacon’s incomparable amenities help define the comprehensive lifestyle residents enjoy at the luxury rental community.  In addition to the considerable outdoor space, The Beacon also features 50,000 square feet of indoor amenities, including a pool, Grotto lounge with hot tubs, his/her saunas and steam, social sauna and treatment rooms; a yoga studio, 24/7 state-of-the-art fitness center, lounge screening room, children’s playroom, restored Art Deco theater/event space, poker room and a billiards hall.  White Glove services include valet parking and courtesy shuttle service to the Grove St. and Exchange Place PATH/Ferry Stations.

Leasing activity has been brisk at The Beacon this summer as renters have embraced the combination of value and lifestyle the community offers. The Beacon’s newest offering, the 158-unit Orpheum, is already more than 75% leased, an impressive milestone that comes on the heels of the three-month lease-up of the 126-unit Mercury building.

Net-effective monthly rents in the 22-story Orpheum building currently start at $1,670 for studio, one- and two-bedroom residences ranging from 592 to 1,310 square feet of living space. Immediate occupancy is available.

The ultra modern residences in the Orpheum feature 14-foot lofted ceilings, dark burnished oak plank flooring, and Gourmet Chef’s Kitchens with espresso 42” cabinets, granite countertops, GE® Energy Star® stainless steel appliances and garbage disposals.  Elegant baths are adorned with cultured marble vanity tops and modern, brushed nickel lighting fixtures.  Each residence also offers central heating and air conditioning, individual washers and dryers, and smart card key access, while panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline, Liberty State Park and Upper Bay are available from many residences. 

The Beacon offers residents proximity to Jersey City’s vibrant downtown district which is celebrated for its comprehensive public transportation system, including numerous NY Waterway Ferry terminals and PATH stations offering convenient service into Manhattan, as well as NJ Transit Light Rail and accessibility to the Holland and Lincoln Tunnels and the New Jersey Turnpike.  The area is also known for its active artist’s community, growing music scene, and ever-improving shopping, dining and nightlife venues.
