Downtown Hilton to Break Ground this Summer

A Hilton hotel planned for the Liberty Harbor North redevelopment zone could break ground as early as this summer. The original plan called for building a hotel, apartments and parking garage, but now the project will be broken into two phases of development. The hotel and parking garage will come first. Jersey City's hotel market has continued to show strength with occupancy rates above the national average. The Westin Hotel on Washington Blvd opened in February.
