Largest projects
Approved projects6 projects with 144 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.
