A complete corner block,
assembled and primed to build.
Seven contiguous lots fronting two of Bayonne's most visible streets are offered together as a single ±28,132 SF assemblage: a full corner block at Broadway and East 21st Street, primed for ground-up vertical development.
Assembling a parcel of this scale and frontage in an established downtown is rarely possible — here, the work is done and the block is whole. Under current CBD zoning, the site supports an estimated ±98,000 SF of mixed-use development by-right, at five stories and 55 feet. Beyond that lies redevelopment upside potential of 8–10 stories†, subject to municipal approvals.
This is not a strip-mall pad. It is a singular position on Bayonne's main street, and an invitation to developers ready to build something the city has never had.
Offered as a single transaction. Lot lines, dimensions, and the ±28,132 SF total are approximate; buyer must independently verify with the City of Bayonne.
What the zoning gives.
What approvals could add.
The numbers that matter, stated plainly — what current zoning is estimated to allow, and the upside a discretionary approval path could unlock.
Square footages are approximate and reflect an estimate of by-right development under current CBD zoning; they are not a guarantee of buildable area.
Everything downtown Bayonne is missing,
imagined in a single building.
The City Center is conceived as a true live-work-play landmark — a single mixed-use building that stacks the uses a downtown wants but rarely gets onto one corner.
Picture a mix along these lines — structured parking at the base, then perhaps a public market hall, an entertainment anchor, a food hall, family services, medical and wellness, a business club, resident amenities, apartments, and a rooftop restaurant to crown it. The exact program is the developer's to shape; the idea is a destination, not just a development — a place residents pass through daily and visitors travel to reach.
The conceptual renderings imagine the most recognizable address in the city — contemporary and classic directions both shown. This is a vision of what the corner could become, offered to spark the imagination of the right developer.
- Conceived as a single, vertically integrated mixed-use landmark — not a collection of pad sites
- Room for a live-work-play mix: retail, dining, services, wellness, workspace, and residences
- Designed in concept to anchor downtown and become a destination address
- Signature, community-facing possibilities — think a rooftop restaurant and a public market hall
The City Center program, renderings, and all uses described are a conceptual vision intended to illustrate possible uses of the property. They are not a committed plan, an approved use, or a representation that any such use, operator, or tenant exists or will exist.

On Broadway, in a city that
cannot expand outward.
Bayonne sits on a narrow peninsula in Hudson County, bounded by water on three sides — and sharing its only land border with Jersey City to the north.
With roughly 5.82 square miles of land, developable ground is limited, and demand concentrates along the city's commercial spine: Broadway. The subject corner sits directly on that spine, within the formally designated CBD Central Business District (Broadway Corridor), and roughly a five-minute walk from the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail 22nd Street station — direct rail transit toward Jersey City and the wider Hudson waterfront.
It is a transit-adjacent, main-street position in a built-out city where corners of this scale and visibility are rarely available.
- Geography
- Water-bounded peninsula — land area effectively fixed by its boundaries
- Corridor
- Broadway — the city's primary commercial corridor, a continuous retail street more than two miles long
- Zoning district
- Formally within the City of Bayonne CBD Central Business District (Broadway Corridor)
- Transit
- Approximately a five-minute walk (~340 yards) to the HBLR 22nd Street light-rail station
- Adjacency
- Direct land border with Jersey City — New Jersey's second-largest city — to the north
- Regional link
- Connected to Staten Island via the Bayonne Bridge
Buyer should independently verify all location, transit, zoning, and corridor characteristics.
The fundamentals here are
structural, not speculative.
A built-out, water-bounded city; a single dominant retail street; rail transit at the doorstep; and a dense residential base. The figures below are drawn from public sources and should be independently verified; where a number could not be firmly sourced, it is stated qualitatively.
-
A city that cannot grow outward
Bayonne occupies a narrow peninsula bounded by Newark Bay, the Kill Van Kull, and Upper New York Bay, with only one land border (to Jersey City). With its footprint fixed by water, new supply concentrates on existing corridors rather than greenfield expansion.

Scarce developable land
The city spans roughly 5.82 square miles of land (of an 11.09-square-mile total, nearly half of it water). A small land area concentrates demand along the Broadway spine.

On the city's dominant retail street
Broadway is Bayonne's main shopping street, a commercial district more than two miles long lined with stores and restaurants on both sides. The subject corner sits directly on this primary retail spine.

-
An officially designated Central Business District
The City of Bayonne's zoning code formally designates Broadway as the "CBD Central Business District (Broadway Corridor)" (Chapter 35, Section 5.10), confirming the corridor's commercial standing in the municipal ordinance. Buyer must verify all current zoning standards directly with the City.

Rail transit at the doorstep
The Hudson-Bergen Light Rail serves Bayonne with four stations, and the subject corner is roughly a five-minute walk (~340 yards) from the 22nd Street station — direct, NJ Transit-operated rail toward Jersey City and the Hudson waterfront.

-
A dense residential base
Bayonne recorded a 2020 Census population of 71,686; the Census Bureau estimated 74,532 residents for 2024 — indicating population growth since 2020. Based on the 2020 Census over approximately 5.82 sq mi of land, density is roughly 12,800 people per square mile. Density on this scale supports ground-floor retail and a walk-up customer base.

-
A substantial household and income base
The city contains on the order of 27,867 households, a proxy for local rental and retail demand. Third-party Census-derived summaries report median household income in the area at roughly $81,000 (2023); income figures should be independently re-verified against Census ACS before underwriting.

-
Adjacent to a major regional market
Bayonne's only land border is with Jersey City, New Jersey's second-largest city and a major office and residential market, with Staten Island reachable via the Bayonne Bridge — positioning the corridor within a deep regional catchment.
