The Greyson Now Leasing in Jersey City’s Journal Square

The Greyson, a striking new addition to the Jersey City skyline, has officially launched leasing at 25 Cottage Street in historic Journal Square.

Developed by Nasser Freres, with both architecture and interior design by renowned NYC-based Handel Architects, the eye-catching 29-story building offers a diverse mix of 622 studio- to three-bedroom rental homes, hospitality-inspired amenities, and a curated living experience just moments from the Journal Square PATH station.

Residences are priced from the $2,700s, with limited-time Grand Opening incentives that include up to two months free, according to The Marketing Directors, the exclusive marketing and leasing agent for The Greyson. Apartments will be available for occupancy in April.

“Journal Square has emerged as one of Jersey City’s most dynamic neighborhoods and a reemerging hub of living, shopping, dining, entertainment and culture,” said Michael Sokoloff, a Partner at Nasser Freres, a New York–based real estate development firm with extensive experience across all asset classes in the U.S. and Europe. “The unique location of The Greyson on a quiet street allows residents to embrace the energy and pulse of the neighborhood and return home to a more relaxed setting in a contemporary building. We’re excited to open the doors to The Greyson to renters seeking modern homes, premium amenities, and convenient connectivity in Journal Square.”

Inspired Design & Modern Residences

The Greyson features a glass serrated-edge façade along Cottage Street that undulates in and out to create bay-window-style projections that maximize views toward the waterfront and Manhattan.

Inside, interiors imagined by Handel Architects feature upscale finishes and appointments, including 9-foot ceilings, full-height windows that maximize natural light and airflow, in-home GE washer/dryers, and electronic smart locks for convenient access. Chef-inspired kitchens are appointed with a stainless-steel appliance package that includes a French-door refrigerator, electric glass-top range, microwave, and dishwasher with hidden controls, complemented by designer cabinetry, quartz countertops, and tile backsplashes.

Elevated Amenities & Community Spaces

The building’s lifestyle amenity package spans multiple full floors and is designed to support connection, wellness, and entertainment. Highlights include a double-height 24/7 attended lobby lounge with baby grand piano, spa with steam, sauna, and relaxation rooms, outdoor kitchens and BBQs, state-of-the-art fitness and yoga studios, co-working and content creation spaces, a speakeasy, bowling alley, children’s playroom, and pet spa with indoor and outdoor play areas. An on-site art gallery will showcase revolving works from local artists, complemented by an art studio that residents can use for their own creative projects.

Crowning the building is the 29th-floor rooftop Sky Deck, with exterior features designed by Melillo Bauer Carman Landscape Architecture, including landscaped outdoor areas with loungers and observation terraces. The showpiece is the highest swimming pool in Jersey City, offering sweeping views across the city and the Manhattan skyline.

“The Greyson provides a complete urban living experience in Journal Square,” said Jackie Urgo, President of The Marketing Directors. “From its modern residences to its elevated and thoughtfully integrated amenity spaces, it meets the needs of today’s renters who value convenience, connection, and quality design.”

Connected & Convenient Location

The Greyson is located on Homestead Place, a new pedestrian-only plaza that connects the Journal Square PATH entrance on Pavonia Avenue to Newark Avenue. The building’s ground-floor retail fronts a newly created section of the Homestead Place extension, adding energy and charm while providing a direct, car-free pedestrian pathway flanked by cafés and stores to the transit hub.

The Greyson is set just two blocks off the Square, offering a calm arrival while remaining conveniently close to the neighborhood’s extensive transportation network, anchored by PATH service to lower and midtown Manhattan, as well as Jersey City, Hoboken, and Newark. NJ Transit trains and private buses also serve Journal Square daily, providing easy access to major employment, dining, and recreation centers on both sides of the Hudson River.

Greystar is handling property management for the building.

The Greyson is located at 25 Cottage Street, Jersey City, NJ. For more information, please call 201-584-2525 or visit www.TheGreyson.com.
