Neighborhood Contexts and Apartment Parameters

​

On Tuesday, May 21, 2019 the Jersey City Housing Authority held the fifth session of the Holland Gardens Visioning Process. In this session, representatives from the design firm Kitchen & Associates reviewed the challenges and opportunities presented by the different redevelopment scenarios along with the unit parameters that a new development would be able to provide, including increased square footage and bathrooms. A representative from Jersey City's Department of Planning showed residents the city's redevelopment plan for the neighborhood and explained how this plan would affect and benefit residents of Holland Gardens. Finally, residents viewed different design aesthetic approaches.
