Jersey City Urby is a residential tower complex in downtown Jersey City, New Jersey, United States. The first tower was proposed in 2012 as URL Harborside, and later renamed to Jersey City Urby.[5] The construction of the first tower began in 2014, and completed in 2017. At 713 feet (217 m), the 69-story tower is the fourth tallest building in New Jersey, as well as in Jersey City as of August 2022[update].[1] It overtook Ocean Resort Casino in Atlantic City for the title of second place when it was completed, but moved down to fourth after the constructions of 99 Hudson Street and Journal Squared Tower 2 respectively. The company, Urby, also has five other locations such as Staten Island, Stamford,[6] Dallas,[7] Newark,[8] and Harrison.[9]
Originally planned to be a trio of three 69-story towers comprising 2,358 residential units, in 2020 a new proposal adds 10 additional units to the second phase of development. In addition, the two buildings will be 677 feet with 1,606 residences and 164 hotel units. The ground floor of the two towers will contain 32,000 square feet (3,000 m2) of retail space and a 272-spot garage with valet parking.[10] In July 2022, the city council gave approval of construction of two similar buildings in the complex.[2]
Similarly, in nearby Journal Square, a 317-unit, 25-story tower called Journal Square Urby was topped out in September 2023. The building will have similar amenities to the already existing tower complex in downtown.[11]

There are three types of apartments within the tower, including studio, one bedroom, and two bedrooms. The apartments have large windows for full city views. They contain their own washer and dryer, built-in storage, full amenities within the kitchen, and air conditioning. Rentals range from $2,335 to $4,686.[12]
Amenities
Most of the building's shared social space features are located on the 9th floor. This includes a 24/7 concierge service, a heated swimming pool, a pool patio, a BBQ, a green space, a fully equipped gym with classes, outdoor lounges with fire pits, a post room, the Urby Kitchen (a space dedicated to classes and events), filtered water stations, cultural events, food tasting and local chef Q&As throughout the year, and currently has two restaurants, Canard Cafe and DOMODOMO sushi.[12][13]

The complex is within a 10-minute walk of three PATH stations: Exchange Place, Grove Street, and Newport.[14] The Harborside Hudson-Bergen Light Rail (HBLR) station is directly in front of the building.
