Jersey City, New Jersey
Modern High-Rise living with a Victorian Twist
The Brief
Highlight the amazing Manhattan skyline and Hudson River view from the 23rd floor of a modern Jersey City high-rise apartment building. Incorporate vintage family furniture originally used in the family’s historic, turn-of-the-century Massachusetts’ Victorian home to create a space that celebrates both the family heritage and the success of the current generation.
