Jersey City Planning Board Meeting November 10, 2026

The Jersey City Planning Board meeting on November 10, 2026, considered several land-use applications, with the main item being a proposed three-tower development at 310 Washington Street. The board approved, 6–1, a minor subdivision (P2025-0157), a major site plan for three lots (P2025-0158), and an amendment to the One Evertrust Plaza site plan (P2025-0175). The proposal includes residential, retail, and office uses, parking, and publicly accessible open space; it also requires deviations involving building glazing, signage, tower setbacks, parking assignment, and street trees. The Evertrust parking amendment would allow interim parking arrangements as the development proceeds, with annual parking-use reports and additional parking plans required at later phases. The applicant also described negotiated community-benefit contributions toward the city’s affordable-housing costs, but no amount was stated. Public comments raised concerns about building placement, open-space location, traffic, shadows, and neighborhood impacts; some speakers supported union construction jobs. No public procurement, contract award, or purchasing decision was identified.

The board also unanimously approved a one-year extension for the previously approved 53-unit project at 76–82 Liberty Avenue, which includes five affordable units and remains subject to its original conditions. A minor subdivision at 136 Terrace Avenue was presented as an as-of-right division into two lots; the transcript does not clearly capture the complete vote. Other notices and resolutions were handled, with no additional procurement activity identified.
