Marshall Terrace
“Marshall Terrace” at 100-132 Marshall Street in Hoboken
A lot of folks in Hoboken are wondering about the project nestled between the towering SkyClub condo building and the 2nd Street Light rail station.
What you have going in this little sliver of land is called Marshall Terrace.
81 new Hoboken residential units at Marshall Terrace
Approved over seven years ago – Marshall Terrace was designed to be a split-level kind of mixed use apartment building with one seven-story section and one six-story section and close to 100 residential apartments, plus parking spots and street-level retail. The approximately 30,000 square foot site is around 450 feet long, and about 70 feet deep.
Over the years, the project has gone through various changes in density and layout, requiring several variance adjustments.
As far as we last saw – the building height has been lowered one story (less parking), but residential units were increased (smaller apartments).
The northern part of the building which is the first phase of the project – will be four residential stories (over one parking level), and the southern part of the building butting Paterson Plank Road (phase II) will the taller section – with five stories over one parking level. This entire property will have two relatively modest retail spaces between 1100 and 1350 square feet.
Residents have emailed Hoboken411 and have been somewhat puzzled by this project. What do you think about it? Is this a “desirable” spot in town?

I think the SKy Club’s pathetic performance in the real estate market and the failure of most restaurants in that area tells you all you need to know about the desirability of that part of town. That said, it is still in Hoboken. If they price the condos cheap enough, they’ll sell it out.

What the hell? I don’t understand this city. All I see is talk of parks, open space, along with development everywhere. What about parking, the roads and other infrastructure?

Who wants to spend a lot of money to live so close to the projects?

Well at least they have had the foresight to limit the height on this building and include some commercial space as well. It would be nice if they combined the commercial spaces and opened a compact Kings store like the ones they have at the Applied buildings on the waterfront. An additional 81 singles/couple/families in the neighborhood equals a lot more demand for that type of local business.
And to the previous poster who commented about lack of desirability, you’re about as clueless as they come. You probably live in the homeless shelter on 3rd Street and you want to sound uninformed and positively clueless. Congratulations, mission accomplished. There are plenty of people who rent or own in the southwest, and happily so. Not everyone in this town wants to live next to your cot in the shelter. Pick up a newspaper once in a while and get a clue!

I hear you need a row boat to live in that area when it rains?

wrong BamBam, don’t live at the homeless shelter on 3rd street. Live up on 14th Street by the toxic gas/oil chemical plume seeping offsite from the St. Louis!
