Living at Maxwell Place in Hoboken
Your Guide to Living at Maxwell Place in Hoboken
I’ve called Hoboken home since 2003 and have extensive experience helping buyers and sellers at Maxwell Place. As a Hoboken Realtor®, I’ve worked with homes throughout the community and understand the differences between its four buildings.
Maxwell Place is one of Hoboken’s premier waterfront condo communities, but the four buildings are more different than they may appear. Layouts, finishes, views, amenities, parking, and even the overall feel can vary depending on which building you choose.
If you’re considering buying or selling at Maxwell Place, this guide will give you a closer look at each building and what it’s actually like to live there.
The Maxwell Place Buildings
Maxwell Place is made up of four luxury condo buildings along Hoboken’s uptown waterfront, all developed by Toll Brothers: 1025 Maxwell Lane, 1125 Maxwell Lane, 1100 Maxwell Lane, and 1000 Maxwell Lane.
While residents share access to many of the community’s amenities, each building has its own advantages and tradeoffs, from views and layouts to parking, finishes, and where the amenities are located.
1025 Maxwell Lane
Built in 2006, 1025 Maxwell Lane was the first building completed at Maxwell Place and has 168 residences ranging from studios to four-bedrooms.
One of the biggest draws is the variety of layouts and views. Select residences offer some of the best views in Maxwell Place, including rare south-facing exposures as well as Hudson River and Manhattan skyline views.
There are no amenities located directly within 1025, which also means less resident traffic through the building’s common areas. Residents have access to the shared Maxwell Place amenities in the neighboring buildings, and most residences include on-site parking.
As one of the original Maxwell buildings, finishes vary considerably. Some homes retain their original Toll Brothers finishes, while others have been extensively renovated.
1125 Maxwell Lane
Built in 2008, 1125 Maxwell Lane is the largest part of the Maxwell Place community, with 376 residences spread across two connected buildings surrounding a landscaped courtyard.
It offers a wide range of layouts, including a significant selection of three-bedroom homes, as well as Maxwell Place’s limited collection of three-level waterfront townhomes.
Many residences offer direct Hudson River and Manhattan skyline views, particularly those facing the waterfront. Residents also have access to the community’s pool, outdoor spaces, club room, fitness center, and other shared amenities.
Most residences include on-site parking. Interiors range from original Toll Brothers finishes to extensively renovated homes.
1100 Maxwell Lane
Built in 2014, 1100 Maxwell Lane has 210 residences ranging from studios to three-bedrooms.
One of its biggest advantages is having several of Maxwell Place’s major amenities directly in the building, including a pool, fitness center, children’s playroom, and resident club room. Most residences also include on-site garage parking.
Because 1100 sits behind 1125 Maxwell Lane rather than directly on the waterfront, views vary considerably. Select residences have Hudson River or skyline views, while many do not have direct water views.
Many homes still have their original Toll Brothers finishes, although renovated and updated residences come to market as well. Two-bedroom, two-bath homes at 1100 also tend to come in at a more accessible price point than comparable homes in some of the other Maxwell Place buildings, making it worth considering for buyers who want the Maxwell Place lifestyle at a lower entry point.
1000 Maxwell Lane
Built in 2021, 1000 Maxwell Lane is the newest and smallest building at Maxwell Place, with just 59 residences. Its smaller size gives it more of a boutique feel than the other Maxwell buildings.
Residences feature more contemporary finishes, and the building has its own rooftop pool and sundeck with south-facing views toward the Freedom Tower. Many south-facing residences overlook Elysian Park, providing open, protected views and abundant natural light.
Unlike 1025, 1100, and 1125 Maxwell Lane, 1000 Maxwell has its own separate HOA. Monthly HOA fees tend to be higher, and parking is located across the street at 1100 Maxwell rather than directly within the building.
