History
[edit]In 2014, L+M Development Partners and the Paulus Hook Community Housing Corporation signed a deal for the sale of the 163-unit affordable housing Paulus Hook Towers and the adjacent parking lot. In the deal, the existing apartments were to have $3 million invested into them by L+M, including new windows and façade renovations. In exchange, L+M was allowed to develop a tower on the parking lot.[2]
In 2016, a $370 million proposal by L+M Development Partners to build a 60-story tower on the site was first announced, which had been used as a parking lot for residents of the Paulus Hook Towers at 100 Montgomery Street, which would also include 750 residential units as well as retail, parking, and a public plaza, with the addition of a new public school.[3]
In 2017, the city approved a version of the tower that was 52 stories, the public school, four storefronts, and a public plaza.[2]
In 2019, the tower began construction, and was dubbed a new name, The Charlotte. By this point, the tower was to be built to its current 57-story height, along with other slight modifications. The development was to include 750 units, including 244 studios, 249 one-bedrooms, 224 two-bedrooms, and 33 three-bedrooms, with 37 apartments set aside for affordable housing. The building is to have 17,000 sq ft of retail space split amongst four storefronts, as well as a 36,000 sq ft elementary school, which was to be sold to Jersey City for $1. Additionally, a public plaza on the corner of Columbus Drive and Warren Street.[4]
In 2022, the building was completed.[1]
In 2023, the owner of the property refinanced the building for $340 million.[5]
