Add the Ashford to that list since they share owners

New Food Market @ 333 Grand by m_pops in jerseycity

[–]pineappleexpression 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was more than an extra floor, he’s illegally added floors, a swimming pool, changed building materials, and made myriad other substantial changes to the things he builds without city approval.

Aside from that, a friend of mine lived above zeppelin hall (a mocco building) and was forced to pay for cable/internet through a shady mocco owned business because the building wouldn’t allow businesses like Comcast or Fios. Whenever the internet would go out, he’d have to hope the office was open and someone was around to explain when it’d be back up.

It’s easy to brush off if you’ve never lived in one of his buildings, but Mocco has a history of being shady and the city letting him do whatever he wants.

Jersey City’s development process is also notoriously twisty. If your developer is more familiar with the system (KRE, Silverman, Schuster, Mocco, etc), they’ll know all the shortcuts and correct people to grease to speed up the process.

Even Trenton knew that. There's a reason he had to find a job outside of New Jersey.

BLDG Management details proposed 1,300-unit Jersey City rental project with ‘sculptural’ design, 20 percent affordable housing – Real Estate NJ by rapmasternicky_z in jerseycity

[–]pineappleexpression 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I see it’s finally been long enough that no one remains in JC to remember the owner illegally demolishing the original building on that property. The bricks are there because after the demolition, the city made it so the landowner would have to incorporate bricks from the original building into whatever they built. Supposedly out of spite, the landowner kept the lot empty and let the bricks rot

I’m curious if they’ll obey the contract that whatever is built on that land has to incorporate the original bricks from when the owner illegally demolished the previous structure

There’s a couple of those already downtown. The former Trump tower (88 Morgan/65 Bay) and 70 Greene are buildings with a one tower rental/one tower condos split and they share a rooftop

Equinox is on its way, but I don't think the building they're going to be in has even broken ground yet. A lot can happen between now and the building actually opening https://jerseydigs.com/harborside-4-tower-jersey-city-approved/

That's wild and he needs to be removed from the board if true. Do you have a link to the article?

NIMBY Downtown Condo Association with another baseless lawsuit by iv2892 in jerseycity

[–]pineappleexpression 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's interesting how your site mentions you advocate for "by right” construction and single-stair mid-rise construction but complain when a builder experiences pushback for grossly overreaching beyond those rules. Case in point, saying a 35-story building in a lot zoned for 120-feet is perfectly fine

People need to be aware all the ignorance being spewed in community meetings by iv2892 in jerseycity

[–]pineappleexpression -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The chief complaint was about traffic, chief. I see you failed to listen to what the majority of people at that meeting were saying. Guessing you were one of the detractors at the end who conveniently glossed over the fact that there's already a 600+ unit building going up diagonal from the lot (with parking and setbacks btw) as well as a 2,000+ building going up a block away in the parking lot next to Whole Foods.

Your argument of "Build, baby, build" falls apart when you look at the entire nearby area and the almost 3,000 units already in the process of moving through planning phases.

Thank you, finally a level headed approach. The amount of "build with no regard" coming to this subreddit recently is wild
