Approved projects3 projects with 909 units. They come from Jersey City’s development tracker, which maps projects the Planning and Zoning Boards have approved. The status is the city’s own: a project stays approved until the city marks it under construction or completed, which can lag what’s happening on site. Permit issued means a building permit for its lot is in the city’s permit records.
Home salesOpen-market sales of one- to four-family houses and condo units since mid-2019, from the state's SR1A sales file. Medians mix every kind of home sold, so a year with many new condos can move them.
