Vision | Jersey City Powerhouse Official Website

Destination

The Powerhouse is envisioned to be a mixed-use, multi-floor destination for arts, retail and entertainment that will anchor the upcoming Arts, Retail and Entertainment District.

Adaptive Reuse

An adaptive reuse project such as the Baltimore's Power Plant has successfully transformed an entire area of the city into a thriving destination.

Vitality

Residents and day-tourists stay longer, spend more per visit and add to the vitality of surrounding areas.

Modern Infrastructure

The proposed preservation vision aims to maintain as much of the building's architectural character while offering modern facilities and infrastructure to consumers and commercial tenants.
