About the Property

The $10.6 million renovation was developed by the Alpert Group LLC, and RCG Development Group LLC, with construction by Lindemon Winckelmann, Dupree Martin & Associates, and F.A.S.T. Construction, Inc., in partnership with the City of Jersey City, Enterprise Community Investment, Inc., TD Bank, and the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency. The site features two three-story buildings and one five-story building at the St. Bridget’s Roman Catholic Church. The two three-story buildings served as a rectory where a priest lived and a convent. The five-story building originally held a school. The project was completely rehabilitated and adaptively reused as apartments in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the the Treatment of Historic properties and the New Jersey State Historic Preservation Office.
