70 Hudson Street

A twin with 90 Hudson Street, 70 Hudson is part of the Colgate Center redevelopment project of Jersey City's Waterfront along Hudson Street. The design reflects a modern interpretation of classical elements-- a classic colonnaded portico surrounds the base of the building, though this has been filled with glass. The three part facade also recalls nineteenth and early twentieth century American architecture, which of course also looked back to classic buildings for inspiration.
