The Print House in Hackensack launched leasing for its first phase earlier this summer. On Sept. 19, the partners behind the transformation at the former home of The Record newspaper announced those 271 luxury units are 80% leased.

Altogether, the project from Russo Development, The Hampshire Cos. and Fourth Edition Inc. will offer 653 residences.

“From the moment a prospective resident walks through the door at Print House, they notice the attention to detail we’ve put into the design elements and thoughtful amenities that we offer,” said Adam Pasternack, president of Russo Property Management. “The accelerated leasing activity is a direct response to what people expect in an all-inclusive community experience with convenient commuting options and onsite retail offerings. Our new residents are not only coming from Hackensack and surrounding towns, but also from Jersey City, Hoboken, and New York City.

“The right mix of Class A construction, convenient location and transportation options plus an excellent value away from the Gold Coast has struck the ideal chord for our residents,” he said.

Located at 160 River St., phase one at the Print House includes 33 studio, 139 one-bedroom and 99 two-bedroom rentals. The property also includes more than 30,000 square feet of street-level mixed-use retail space. Hackensack Meridian Health and Blue Foundry Bank are already signed on. NAI James E. Hanson is handling leasing for the retail component, and according to the project partners the firm is close to closing two additional deals with major retailers.

Comforts of home

Apartments feature floor-to-ceiling windows, balconies, and full-size washer and dryers. Indoor amenities include an on-site concierge, a fitness center with yoga and spin room, multiple resident lounges and a game room with a multisport simulator, rooms for private dining and entertainment, a resident café, private conference rooms, coworking spaces, and package lockers.

Outdoors, the Print House includes an expansive rooftop terrace with New York City skyline views, a resort-style pool and sundeck, private outdoor kitchens, communal barbecues, lounge and dining areas, public green space, and a cinema wall.

The property will include resident events and also offers a dog park and bike storage.

Studios start at $2,100, one bedrooms in the $2,600’s, and two bedrooms at $3,495, depending on the floorplan. Currently under construction, delivery of phase two at Print House is expected in early 2024.
