This brown-field reclamation site is a proposed 30 acre mixed use, sustainable waterfront community with one of the highest degrees of accessibility in the northern New Jersey area.

Located less than 2 miles from Newark Liberty International Airport on the Newark Bay in the City of Elizabeth, this development is conceived as a high rise “airport city” providing commercial, residential and hotel accommodations for NJ residents that work within the region or commute to NYC, and the international business traveling community. Celadon is also highly anticipated due to its unique application of smart growth and sustainable development principles that will provide significant municipal and regional economic impacts.

This development benefits from a waterfront location that will feature expansive views and a ferry landing providing direct access to lower Manhattan in approximately 25 minutes. Working with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and other local agencies, the design team has come up with solutions that maintain view corridors to the Newark Bay as well as protection for the adjacent wetlands.

MUS served as the Associate Architect in this master site plan approval process. Site plan approval was granted by the City of Elizabeth in 2007.
