Englewood Cliffs, NJ Demolition has commenced at 800 Sylvan Ave., where Garden Communities will introduce a multifamily community at New Jersey’s Hudson River Palisades. The project marks the first new multifamily development in more than four decades for the Bergen County municipality.
In late 2021, Garden Communities purchased the 20-acre parcel at 800 Sylvan Ave., which for decades housed office and R&D operations for consumer products giant, Unilever. In a market with limited inventory, the site offers a prime location for reuse as multifamily, according to Garden Communities’ Brett Tanzman, principal. The development plan responds to the region’s sustained need for additional housing options and will offer a modern live/play product.
“Bergen County is New Jersey’s most heavily populated county – a region known for its high quality of life, well-educated labor pool and robust healthcare systems,” said Tanzman. “Within that context, 800 Sylvan Ave. sits directly across from New York City – less than five miles from the George Washington Bridge. It is truly a special property and one we look forward to bringing to its best and highest use.”
The community will feature a mix of studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments as well as three-bedroom townhomes. The lifestyle will also have indoor/outdoor recreational areas and amenities, as well as a host of conveniences.
