Plans have been slowly advancing for the final phase of Port Liberté, a 40-acre neighborhood that currently consists of about 800 townhomes. The area’s southern section has about 14 developable acres left that have been marketed for sale over the last few years by Blue Gate Partners.
Toll Brothers, who built the initial phases of Port Liberté, has officially sold the vacant parcels to New Liberty Residential Urban Renewal Company, a subsidiary of Hoboken-based Ironstate Development. Cleveland-based NRP Group recently submitted an application on behalf of Ironstate to develop four lots at 1 Constellation Place into the first portion of the neighborhood’s fourth phase.
Designed by KTGY Architecture and Planning, the development would consist of a long five-story apartment complex with a seven-story parking garage in the center. The entirety of the project is slated to include 401 units breaking down as 41 studios, 169 one-bedrooms, 166 two-bedrooms, and 25 three-bedroom spaces.
