          The View Residential Complex is 1,166,000 square feet of mixed-use development consisting of 575 Residential units in three separate towers built over a base of approximately 10,000 sf of retail space, 23,000 sf of restaurant space and a 1,195 stall multi-level parking structure. The complex also provides a 47,000 sf rooftop plaza above the mezzanine parking level that contains decorative paved walkways, seating areas, water features, pergolas, outdoor dinning areas, tot-lot, game tables, lighting, and mixed planting.

          Dresdner Robin played a key role in the planning and development of the project; providing due diligence investigation, zoning analysis, wetlands mapping and investigation, regulatory permitting, topographic survey mapping, site engineering and landscape and lighting design.

          As the project engineers, Dresdner Robin coordinated and designed all utility extensions to the complex including gas, water, sanitary, storm sewer, electric and telecommunications services. Dresdner Robin's innovative design solutions utilized otherwise wasted pieces of property to provide water quality and storage solutions complying with the NJDEP's latest storm water management regulations.

          As the project Landscape Architects, Dresdner Robin provided overall site design including the design of walkway systems around the building with seating, lighting, decorative paving, a custom design railing and mixed plantings. At the request of Jersey City, Dresdner Robin designed a streetscape plan along Johnston Ave. which connects the site access points to the Liberty State Park Hudson Bergen Light Rail Station. Dresdner Robin also designed the 47,000 sf rooftop open space plaza. The Rooftop design provides mixed passive and active recreational spaces, as well as a meadow like planting scheme.
