Just south of Jersey City in Bayonne, Silk Lofts is preparing to open leasing this weekend.  The collection of upscale rental apartments is being created in the century-old former Maidenform Factory.  Silk Lofts, LLC, developer of the collection of 85 homes, has taken careful steps to ensure the historical fabric of the building while creating modern homes and world-class amenities.  Check out this unique new apartment building HERE.
