99 Hudson
99 Hudson is New Jersey’s tallest residential building, an all-condo tower rising from Exchange Place with east lines that look straight across at Lower Manhattan.
99 Hudson is the building every out of town buyer asks about first, because it is the one they can see from Manhattan: 900 feet and 79 stories of limestone and glass, the tallest building in New Jersey and, at completion, the tallest all-residential tower in the country outside New York and Chicago. I have closed five homes here since 2021, from an $834,000 one bedroom on the 43rd floor to a $1,210,000 two bedroom on the 18th, and the building is more nuanced than its skyline. This guide covers the amenities, the tax math, the lines that carry the views, the diligence a tower this size deserves, and what the sales say.

What 99 Hudson is like to live in
It is a vertical city. The amenity level is larger than most Hoboken buildings in total, the pool deck looks straight at Lower Manhattan, and the lobby and plazas have the scale of a Manhattan tower. The homes are efficient and finished to a consistent standard, with floor to ceiling glass and views that, above roughly the 30th floor, run from the Statue of Liberty to the George Washington Bridge. The location is the best in Jersey City for anyone who works downtown: the PATH to the World Trade Center is four minutes, and the ferry is a short walk.
The trade offs are real, and buyers should hear them before they fall for the view. It is a very large building, so the amenity spaces are shared with 781 households and the elevators are busy at rush hour. The dues and taxes together are meaningful: 99 Hudson is not tax abated, so homes pay full Jersey City taxes on assessed value, and the real tax line plus dues is the first number to model on any unit. A building of this size also calls for a thorough attorney review.
Diligence, plainly
A tower of 781 homes rewards unit-level verification: measure or have the unit measured rather than relying on the marketing floor plan, price per square foot on the actual number, ask the association about reserves, planned work, and whether any assessment has been discussed, and have your attorney review the offering plan and its amendments along with anything open involving the building during attorney review. None of this makes the building unbuyable; the resale market has continued to function, and my own 2025 sale closed at $1,030,000. It does mean that diligence here is not optional.
The lines and floors that set the price
Exposure and height set the price more than anything else. Homes that face east and south toward the harbor and Lower Manhattan carry the premium; north facing homes have Midtown and Hoboken in the window; west facing homes look over Jersey City and trade at a discount. Above the 30th floor the views clear the neighboring towers, and the top fifteen floors are their own market. The one bedrooms in the 700 to 800 sq ft range on the mid floors have been the workhorse product for investors and first buyers, which is where four of my five sales landed.

Documented sales at 99 Hudson
My own closings, all public record and listed on my Track Record page:
| Unit | Year | Price |

For context, in the summer of 2026 one bedrooms of about 760 to 775 sq ft were asking $744,800 (unit 1103) and $749,000 (unit 2607), a two bedroom of 1,090 sq ft was asking $1,199,000 (unit 2912), the building’s active range ran from about $735,000 to $4 million, and a rental was listed at $7,400 per month.
What buyers should know
Take the taxes from the assessor (the building is not abated, so expect full taxes on assessed value) and run the true monthly number with the actual dues; at recent levels a $1 million one bedroom can carry roughly $1,300 to $2,000 per month in dues and taxes before the mortgage, depending on the schedule. Measure the unit. Read the association’s financials, reserve study, and litigation disclosures with your attorney. Confirm the parking arrangement. Then buy the line and the floor, because that is what you are paying for.
What sellers should know
You are competing with dozens of active listings inside the same building at any given time, so pricing has to come from your own line and floor band, and presentation has to show the view first. Renovations matter less here than in older buildings because the finishes are uniform; staging, photography at the right time of day, and an honest price matter more. Full market exposure in the first week is the difference between a sale and a long listing in a building this size.
