If you’ve been watching the Jersey City luxury condo market, there’s one new address that keeps coming up: One Jones Park. Situated directly across from Enos Jones Park at 387 8th Street in the heart of Hamilton Park, this development is redefining what upscale urban living looks like on the Hudson County side of the river — and buyers are paying close attention.

As a licensed broker at Nest Seekers International representing buyers and sellers across Jersey City, Hoboken, and the Hudson Valley, I’ve watched a lot of new developments come and go. One Jones Park is different. Here’s the full breakdown.


What Is One Jones Park?

One Jones Park is a boutique collection of 75 luxury condominium residences developed by EPIRE — the firm behind The Galleria on Provost in Jersey City’s Powerhouse Arts District. Located at 387 8th Street, the building sits directly across from Enos Jones Park, placing residents steps from the green space, tree-lined streets, and Victorian brownstones that define Hamilton Park’s character.

  • 75 exclusive residences
  • 3 floor plan types (1–3 bedrooms)
  • 807 sq ft average — 1-bedroom
  • 1,222 sq ft average — 2-bedroom
  • 1,686 sq ft average — 3-bedroom
  • 90-space automated stacking parking garage

The unit mix breaks down as 25 one-bedroom homes, 47 two-bedroom homes, and 3 three-bedroom homes. That skew toward two-bedrooms is intentional — it targets the affluent young professional and growing-family buyer who wants space but won’t sacrifice location.


The Interiors: Italian Craftsmanship Meets NYC Proximity

What separates One Jones Park from the sea of Jersey City glass towers is the build quality. EPIRE partnered with Alessandro Bonati of Altirs to source materials from Italy’s most respected artisans. Every finish is considered, not just checked off a spec sheet.

The homes feature:

  • Bespoke Meson’s cabinetry with rich wood-textured melamine finishes
  • Premium quartz surfaces throughout
  • Kohler luxury bath fixtures
  • Precision-engineered Schüco windows for maximum natural light
  • In-unit washer/dryer, walk-in closets, and balconies in select units

The Schüco window system — the same used in high-end European architecture — is a particular standout. These aren’t builder-grade windows. They’re engineered for thermal performance, sound insulation, and clean sightlines. When you’re living in a condo across from a park with Manhattan on the horizon, windows matter.


Building Amenities: White-Glove From Day One

One Jones Park is a full-service building — not a boutique condo with a handful of perks bolted on. The amenity package is built around resident experience at every hour of the day.

  • 24-hour doorman service
  • Rooftop residents’ lounge — furnished by B&B Italia
  • State-of-the-art fitness center
  • Children’s playroom
  • On-site preferred parking — rare in this neighborhood
  • Lobby and common areas furnished by B&B Italia
  • Bike storage
  • 90-car electronically controlled automatic stacking garage

That rooftop lounge deserves extra attention. It offers panoramic views stretching across the Manhattan skyline, the Hoboken waterfront, and Journal Square’s evolving horizon. The 90-vehicle automated stacking parking system is a real competitive edge — parking in Downtown Jersey City is a legitimate amenity, not a given.


The Hamilton Park Neighborhood: Why Location Wins

Location has always been the most durable variable in real estate. One Jones Park sits in Hamilton Park — and if you know Jersey City, you know that’s not an accident.

  • Median home value outranks 95%+ of all NJ neighborhoods
  • Average rental rates exceed $6,600/month
  • Average individual income: $110,172
  • Only 1.1% of American neighborhoods rank wealthier

The neighborhood was named for Alexander Hamilton and anchored by the Victorian-era namesake park — a sprawling green space with athletic courts, dog runs, playgrounds, a splash pad, and a weekly farmers market. The surrounding streets are tree-lined, brownstone-fronted, and on the National Registry of Historic Places since 1979.

Transit: Grove Street PATH (trains every 4–8 minutes to Lower Manhattan and Midtown), Newport PATH, and Newark Avenue’s pedestrian plaza with 40+ restaurants and cafes — all steps away. Newark Liberty International: 9 miles. LaGuardia: 14 miles.

What’s nearby: Hamilton Pork, Hamilton Inn, Dames Coffee Espresso Bar (top 10 in Jersey City), boutiques, galleries, and a curated mix of independent businesses that keep the neighborhood feel intact.


Who Is This Building For?

One Jones Park is targeting a very specific buyer — and that’s a good sign for long-term value. This is not a mass-market high-rise. The 75-unit count keeps the building boutique. The Italian materials and B&B Italia furnishings signal serious intent toward the luxury segment.

The ideal buyer fits one of three profiles:

  1. A Manhattan commuter priced out of Tribeca or the West Village who wants equivalent quality for less.
  2. A Jersey City mover-upper who has been renting and is ready to own in the neighborhood they love.
  3. An investor buyer looking for a premium asset in a neighborhood with proven price appreciation and strong rental demand.

All three of those buyers exist in volume right now. Downtown Jersey City house prices hover around $900K–$940K median and inventory is tight. A purpose-built luxury condo in Hamilton Park — with this build quality — occupies a rare niche in the market.


The Developer: EPIRE’s Track Record

EPIRE is not a first-timer. Their prior Jersey City project, The Galleria on Provost in the Powerhouse Arts District, was funded by a $36 million construction loan from BHI and delivered 86 luxury condominiums. One Jones Park carries a $38.7 million construction loan from the same lender — a direct vote of confidence in the developer’s execution capability. Construction commenced March 2024. Target completion: December 2025.


Bottom Line: Is One Jones Park Worth It?

Yes — and here’s the operator-level case. You have a boutique 75-unit building in one of New Jersey’s wealthiest neighborhoods, backed by a proven developer, with institutional financing, Italian-grade finishes, full-service amenities, and direct PATH access to Manhattan. The comparable set in this micro-market is thin. That’s not a risk — that’s a moat.

For buyers who’ve been circling the Jersey City luxury market, One Jones Park represents the kind of opportunity that doesn’t repeat often in Hamilton Park. Boutique new construction in this neighborhood is rare by definition. Once these 75 residences sell, the next chance to buy into a purpose-built luxury building steps from the park won’t come cheap — or soon.
