Hoboken | Hot Property: The Hudson Tea | Condo's |

The Hudson Tea Condominiums has held it's reign as one of Hoboken's hottest places to live. No doubt these unique homes have attracted accomplished single professionals, high profile families and even some politicians and celebrities including the likes of Governor Corzine, the late Arturo Gatti and Eli Manning.

This makes The Hudson Tea - LaVidaSquares- Hot Property choice.

The Hudson Tea was once home to the Lipton Tea Factory established in 1893, when at that time, tea leaves were only enjoyed by the rich as it was an expensive commodity, that is until Sir Thomas Lipton made it available at affordable prices and with a guarantee of quality. While the first Lipton Tea factory was actually once on the corner of 13th and Hudson - also known as the Tea Factory, not to be confused with Toll Brothers' Hudson Tea, it then moved its head quarters to where we know now to be as Harborside Lofts and The Hudson Tea buildings.

What makes the Hudson Tea so hot?

  The Hudson Tea is not your grandma's building - unless grandma has serious style. They are lofty and open and modern, and the New Harborside building is boutique but on a grand scale with attention to detail in their newly outfitted kitchens with dark cabinetry and white hot stone counters.

The Harborside has recently sold out through the developer directly however there are re sales available currently and with prices softening in the last year, owning a home in one of these fabulous buildings is more of a reality now for many.

Just today a true one bedroom , 835 sq feet just closed at $410,000. There are studios currently selling under $400,000 and there are spectacular residences available with NYC water views up to 1.5 million and a penthouse that is undergoing major renovations and upgrades to make a special home.
