bwe kafe is prepping to open its third coffee shop in Hudson County. The neighborhood café and gathering space, which has locations at 140 River Drive South in downtown Jersey City and 1002 Washington Street in Hoboken has signed a lease to occupy 1,904 square feet of street-level retail space at the six-story Edge Adams building located at 1405 Adams Street in Hoboken.
Named bwè Kafe North End, the new outpost will introduce new design elements and features not found at other locations to create a higher level of social engagement and provide expanded service. The multi-level space will feature a central mezzanine to foster a communal vibe. An extended bar with an open kitchen will allow for larger food service. Portions of the interior space will have distinct and unique design motifs and merchandising to better promote neighborly interaction.
The new location within Bijou Properties’ 34-unit Edge Adams luxury rental building that is registered for LEED Platinum certification from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) marks the latest example of the proliferation of residential, retail, dining and entertainment options in uptown Hoboken which is creating a vibrant, urban neighborhood destination.
“There’s been a lot of exciting development happening in Hoboken’s north end,” commented bwé kafe owner Dale Mori-Ryan. “We were fortunate enough to be a part of multiple pop-ups with Hudson Table and we became more aware of the growth and excitement in this area. We wanted to participate in the growth with a more permanent location and Edge Adams was the ideal address.
“We love being surrounded by so many other spaces that are supporting the arts,” she continues. “Hoboken’s only movie theater is directly across from us and the Mile Square Theater is steps away. We also love that the building is on pace to be LEED Certified. We’re constantly trying to think of ways to become more sustainable as a coffee shop and as individuals. We offer compostable utensils, sell reusable straws, try to promote multi-use cups instead of single use ones and try to limit our waste. Being in a LEED Certified building is very special to us.”
It’s no coincidence that Bijou Properties also targeted bwé kafe for its thoughtfully-curated retail mix in the neighborhood as the two locally-based entities share a community-minded philosophy as part of their DNA.
“We’re a Hoboken company that is fully invested in the quality of life for its residents, now and in the future,” said Bijou Properties’ Managing Partner Larry Bijou. “We continually strive to provide neighborhood amenities and services that complement our residential components and significantly contribute to the community-at-large. We’re incredibly excited to be bringing bwè Kafe North End to Edge Adams and to deliver a new retail destination in this neighborhood. It’s a perfect partnership between two like-minded businesses that share a vision for creating an eco-conscious living environment for all to enjoy.”
For over a decade, Bijou Properties has been introducing residential and commercial buildings in uptown Hoboken — all developed responsibly and with much-needed supportive retail and services. Its Park + Garden rental building located at 1450 Garden Street is home to the Elysian Charter School and the developer introduced Garden Street Mews, a cobblestone and tree-lined mews zoned for pedestrian use only where its sponsors the annual outdoor Garden Street Farmers Market. Of recent note, Bijou Properties completed a 40,000 square-foot retail/recreation/office building located at 333 15th Street which includes tenants Orale, West Elm, SLT, and The Gravity Vault, Hudson County’s first rock climbing gym.
All of its properties have received or registered for LEED certification from USGBC, meaning they have been developed under strict guidelines to result in healthy, highly-efficient and cost-saving green buildings that dramatically reduce the impact on the surrounding neighborhood and environment.
Likewise, bwé kafe is driven by a mission of serving both its immediate and extended community. Locally, its retail spaces host monthly open mic nights, collaborations with local vendors, showcases with local artists, open workshops and community events and fundraisers.
Globally, it partners with the non-profit ‘Love for Haiti,’ an organization which strives to improve life, opportunity, verse, and education in that nation. Through this program, bwe kafe supports the art and music departments in two schools outside of Port au Prince via donations gathered in its coffee shops. The monetary proceeds go to the tuitions of students for higher education.
“Our baristas and friends of the coffee shop visit the schools once or twice a year to deliver musical donations, laptops and art supplies, and meet with the students that are the beneficiaries of the scholarships,” Mrs. Mori-Ryan said. “At home, we have great plans to expand our community collaborations in the new space.”
Edge Adams is the second boutique building in Bijou Properties’ Edge Lofts apartment portfolio, following Edge Clinton, a 35-unit rental at 1405 Clinton Street.

Jersey City, NJ Mayor Steven Fulop joins developers in a ribbon cutting ceremony marking the grand opening of The Enclave, a new 260-unit luxury rental building along the Hoboken border. From left: Rodd Werstil, Partner, McKinney Properties; Jonathan Schwartz, Partner, BNE Real Estate Group; Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop; David Pantirer, Partner, BNE Real Estate Group; Marc Pantirer, Partner, BNE Real Estate Group; George Vallone, Co-Founder and President, Hoboken Brownstone Company; and Daniel Ganz, Co-Founder and CEO, Hoboken Brownstone Company.
Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop recently joined officials from BNE Real Estate Group, Hoboken Brownstone Company and McKinney Properties to officially grand open The Enclave, a new collection of 260 luxury apartments and resort-style amenities in one of the city’s hottest new neighborhoods.
With the cut of a ceremonial ribbon, Mayor Fulop, fellow municipal officials, local dignitaries and development principals celebrated the addition of The Enclave’s upscale residences and more than 40,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenities to the burgeoning Jersey City neighborhood along the Hoboken border. Located at 675 Monmouth Street, the Minno & Wasko-designed building, with its modern interior aesthetic and endless social spaces that encourage resident interaction, complements the neighborhood’s existing mix of retail, dining and cultural attractions while offering a convenient launching point to Manhattan and all that downtown Jersey City and Hoboken have to offer.
“The opening of the Enclave is exciting for Jersey City as the new addition enhances the rapidly growing neighborhood where the City borders Hoboken,” said Mayor Steven Fulop. “The transformation of this land, from part of the Van Leer Chocolate Factory to new modern apartments, is a testament of our commitment to enhancing quality of life in every corner of this great City. This project was not only a major overhaul of this site, but it also creates jobs and entices people to consider calling Jersey City home.”
The Grand Opening event, which took place on the six-story building’s magnificent rooftop amenities terrace with the New York City skyline serving as a dramatic backdrop, occurred one month after the developers launched leasing at The Enclave. Renters have responded enthusiastically to the new lifestyle offering, with a number of residents having already moved in. The Marketing Directors is the building’s marketing and exclusive leasing agent.
“This former industrial neighborhood has quickly transformed into Jersey City’s newest live/play environment,” said Jonathan Schwartz, a partner at BNE Real Estate Group. “The Enclave takes full advantage of its convenient location, which is enhanced by our complimentary shuttle service to the Hoboken PATH Station, yet offers residents a more private setting with welcomed outdoor open space. Inside, we’ve delivered stylish homes and a creative offering of amenities that focuses on fun.”
Apartments at The Enclave range from studios to two-bedroom residences, with select homes offering private balconies. Design-driven living spaces include nine-foot ceiling heights, crisp, white quartz countertops, modern stainless-steel appliances, in-home washer/dryers, and custom modular closets. Monthly rents start from $2,300, with a limited-time offer of one month free on a 13-month lease. Immediate occupancy is available.
The Enclave residents enjoy a full suite of cutting-edge indoor and outdoor amenities that were curated to create an exceptional urban lifestyle experience. An abundance of outdoor space is highlighted by a resort-style rooftop terrace featuring a swimming pool, private BBQ areas, outdoor bar and a fire pit – all set against the dazzling Manhattan skyline backdrop. The pet-friendly building also features a dog run and spa, multiple entertainment lounges, an arcade/game room, co-working spaces and conference room, children’s imagination room with connected outdoor play area, and a Zen garden. Fitness enthusiasts will enjoy a state-of-the art fitness center with virtual fitness programs, spin room, indoor/outdoor yoga areas, private massage room and resident locker rooms. Covered parking, bike storage and resident storage are available on-site.
Residents also enjoy 24-hour concierge, Amazon package lockers, pet concierge services through Bark Building, a Lyft partnership and pick up location, and a Citi Bike hub. The building is surrounding by outdoor landscaped open space and pedestrian plazas, while two new public parks created by the development partners are nearing completion and will feature a children’s playground and dog run.
“Downtown Jersey City continues to attract residents from both sides of the Hudson River and beyond with its exceptional combination of commuter convenience, vibrant arts, culture, dining and nightlife attractions, and value when compared with offerings in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Long Island City,” said Jacqueline Urgo, President of The Marketing Directors. “This neighborhood is continuing that trend, and The Enclave is quickly emerging as the area’s signature residential address.”
The Enclave’s proximity to the Hoboken PATH Station and Holland Tunnel makes for an easy commute to Manhattan, while direct access to a network of highways brings New Jersey destinations into play without having to navigate through crowded local streets.
For additional information and to schedule a private tour of The Enclave, please visit http://www.TheEnclaveJC.com, or call 833-292-5351. The building’s leasing and model center is open daily and is located at 675 Monmouth Street, Jersey City, NJ 07310

The innovative idea to provide a one-of-a-kind wellness and health lifestyle at a Hudson County multi-family property has sprouted a new and creative yoga and lifestyle studio at The Cliffs Collection based on elements of Blue Zone Living which emphasizes a balance of diet, good habits and social engagement to initiate healthier, happier and longer lives. And now this trailblazing new center is preparing to open its doors to the public.
Called SANCRI- Yoga-Wellness-Lifestyle, the holistic studio is located in the five-story building at 100 Paterson Plank Road on Jersey City’s Hoboken border. It features massage and body treatments, yoga room with yoga and meditation classes, amethyst bio mat, an oxygen bar, as well as a complete wellness events calendar featuring workshops, health programs and expected cooking classes tied into nutritional speakers. There’s also a fully-equipped fitness center with Himalayan salt sauna.
SANCRI and its programming is headed by Health & Wellness Director Kristina Haug, who possesses over a decade of studying advanced yoga practices, including under the personal guidance of Swami Dwarkanand for the past three years. Ms. Haug perfectly blends her knowledge of holistic principals with a background in hospilatilty to deliver the ideal wellness and luxury lifestyle at The Cliffs Collection and effectively meet and exceed the health and leisure needs of outside clients. SANCRI is staffed by seasoned instructors and wellness professionals.
“SANCRI caters to your body, mind and soul,” Ms. Haug says. “Hudson County has very few, if any, residential buildings that focus on improving the health and living standards of the people. It’s a unique concept as we truly embrace the idea of urban blue zone living and continuously try to create awareness on how to improve your life and implement small but powerful healthy habits that will led to longer and happier life’s. Convenience is one major aspect in this approach. We are providing services that that are currently inexistent in the Hoboken/ Jersey City area and we are placing them all under one roof! We’re excited to offer this comprehensive package of services and treatments to the public for the first time.”
Blue Zones are geographic regions worldwide where residents share common lifestyle traits. SANCRI ties into the blue zone living concept through the powerful commonalities that ultimately lead to longer and happier lives, including community and belonging events, physical exercise, relaxation & wellness and diet.
“SANCRI offers a completely holistic wellness approach to the community,” Ms. Haug continues. “With our services expanding from regular yoga and meditation classes to Ayurvedic inspired holistic body treatments and the alternative approach of using preventative medicinal devices like the amethyst bio matt while encouraging a regular use of the Himalayan salt sauna we cover a wide variety of naturopathic and preventive health practices which can’t be found in the area.”
The original concept of SANCRI was a collaboration between Ms. Haug and Sanford Weiss, CEO of Manhattan Building Company, developer of The Cliffs Collection. Mr. Weiss wanted to introduce a platform that would stimulate residents to have healthy habits and make it convenient for them to live active lifestyles. The convenience of having a Himalayan salt sauna, massage treatment room, regular yoga and meditation classes and educational workshops and events on-site dramatically improve the living standards of the residents.
Many of the services and programing at SANCRI are free of charge to residents of The Cliffs Collection. The center is part of an overall amenity package that includes a private urban oasis awaits with an updated courtyard with roof deck and lounge, beautifully landscaped Zen Garden and hammock area, and an outdoor kitchen with gas grills, fire pits and water features all uniquely set against the breathtaking geological cliffs that nearly touch the building’s western edge.
Inside, homeowners receive a residents-only lounge with fireplace, children’s playroom and a lobby with concrete floors and adorned with historic photos of the building.
“We also provide 24-hour concierge service, bike storage and secured, covered on-site parking,” says Joshua Biegel, Project Director for The Cliffs Collection.
60 upscale condominium homes for sale in the initial phase of The Cliffs Collection. Available for quick delivery, the studio-to-four-bedroom homes feature open floor plans ranging from 570 to 2,200 square-feet of soaring living space at introductory prices starting from the $500,000s. Residences are fully customizable, allowing for buyers to work with in-house designers or on their own to tailor their new home with myriad of selections and options – while still enjoying near-immediate occupancy.
The Cliffs Collection is housed in a pre-war building began life in the early 1900s as L.O. Koven & Bro., Inc. Boiler Factory. Its classic exterior has been restored as part of its rebirth as a signature landmark residential building.
A mix of old and new will be found throughout the new residences, including soaring 10-to-14-foot ceilings, oversized windows framing panoramas of Hoboken, the Manhattan skyline and the cliffs; exposed brick walls and spiral duct work, engineered wide plank oak flooring, custom built-in closets, kitchens with state-of-the art appliances and industrial-themed fixtures and lavish baths with Kohler fixtures and white glass wall tiles.
“Buyers can also purchase a home ‘as is,’ allowing for them to privately complete renovations and improvements,” Mr. Biegel points out.
The Cliffs Collection maximizes its location just blocks from all the entertainment, dining, shopping and more that line Hoboken’s lively Washington Street and Newark Avenue retail corridor. The 2nd Street Light Rail Station is also steps from The Cliffs Collection, providing convenient access to both downtown Jersey City and uptown Hoboken.
“Complementary shuttle service will be provided to the Hoboken PATH station from our front door, bringing the work centers and vibrant nightlife of Manhattan close to home,” Mr. Biegel points out.
An on-site sales center and fully-furnished model home are open and available to tour at The Cliffs Collection. For additional information or to schedule a visit to tour the building, please visit www.thecliffscollection.com or call (201)-222-0920.
