A 1908 powerhouse that electrified the Hudson Tunnel deserves better than plywood. Working to make it Jersey City's defining landmark. Contact: @stogiemonster
Jersey City has never had its own architectural symbol. I think we've been standing next to it the whole time.
My full vision for the Powerhouse is now live. Restoration, three glass towers, arts center, light rail and all.

We're supporting the redevelopment of the Powerhouse into an asset for the greater community! Follow @pohomuseum for more info and to learn more about the vision for the historic building in downtown Jersey City.
LOVE IT! A public/private partnership to create a community asset. It's what I envisioned with the @libertybridge_, and also with the old Powerhouse in downtown Jersey City. Great job to @Google@nycgov@HudsonRiverPark@beardfoundation and others!

Just walked around the Powerhouse building with
@HeartsSuspended to discuss the idea of creating a documentary about this project. Meghna sees the vision, and understands the importance of turning this building into an asset for the community. #pohomuseum
We just got off a call with the Jersey City Redevelopment Agency to pitch them the vision of the #PohoMuseum, and to acquire the blueprints of the Powerhouse building (and photos of the inside). The blueprints will be used for architectural renderings (more info coming soon).
Big thanks to local Jersey City artist Shaheen Yadav for creating her Powerhouse-inspired artwork that she named "Power Chai." This is the third piece in The Powerhouse Collection, and there's more to come! #thepowerhousecollection
Our second piece for "The Powerhouse Collection" has arrived! Thank you to local Jersey City artist Carlos Aponte. You can see Carlos's work on his Instagram account (go to our IG account to get to his). More art for the Collection coming soon! #thepowerhousecollection
Read about our vision to revive the old Powerhouse in #JerseyCity into a community-first, globally recognized art museum that houses traditional art, web3 art (#NFTs, virtual reality & #metaverse experiences) a children's art workshop and more.
