The Walker & Dunlop New York Capital Markets team, led by
Keith Kurland, Aaron Appel, Jonathan Schwartz, Adam Schwartz,
Jordan Casella, and William Herring, acted as exclusive advisors to
the client, Nasser Freres, and identified TYKO Capital, which is
backed by Elliott Investment Management, as the lender. With the
building already nearing top-off, the loan proceeds will fund the
balance of costs to complete.
The property will rise on a 0.7-acre site in Journal Square, one
of Jersey City’s most dynamic neighborhoods. The development will
feature 389,720 rentable square feet of residential space, offering
a diverse mix of studios, 1-bedroom, 1-bedroom + den, 2-bedroom,
and 3-bedroom apartments. Additionally, the project includes 44,551
rentable square feet of office space and 2,965 rentable square feet
of retail along the newly extended Homestead Avenue.
“The Greyson will redefine luxury living in Jersey City,
appealing to renters seeking exceptional amenities and prime
connectivity as a high-value alternative to Manhattan,” said
Michael Sokoloff, a partner at Nasser Freres. “We are thrilled to
partner with Walker & Dunlop and TYKO Capital on a project that
will not only enhance the skyline but also contribute to the
vitality of the Journal Square community.”
The Greyson will boast an array of cutting-edge amenities,
including a rooftop pool with Manhattan skyline views,
state-of-the-art fitness center, immersive virtual reality and
sports rooms, and thoughtfully designed communal spaces. Its
strategic location offers residents seamless access to the Journal
Square Transportation Center, ensuring connectivity across New
Jersey and to downtown and midtown Manhattan. The property will
also enhance the neighborhood with a new public pathway linking
Newark Avenue and Pavonia Avenue, creating a vibrant and accessible
urban experience.
Jersey City continues to attract significant institutional and
public investment, including the opening of the Centre Pompidou and
the reopening of the historic Loew’s Jersey Theater. These cultural
advancements, coupled with the city’s competitive rental market and
burgeoning economy, have cemented its status as a top destination
for young, high-income renters.
"Jersey City has undergone a remarkable transformation over the
past decade, becoming a magnet for residents seeking competitively
priced, spacious rental options compared to NYC," said Keith
Kurland, senior managing director and co-head of New York Capital
Markers at Walker Dunlop. "We are proud to work alongside Nasser
Freres to bring The Greyson to life and further elevate the
neighborhood."
