Online Tour of The Beacon via JCConstruction

The new entrance to the Capital and the Rialto

Almost every morning, I take a snap of the Beacon from my window and feature it in my local Jersey City weather entry for the day. I usually refer to the Beacon as “triple tower” from where I stand — only the 3 front buildings are visible.

Last Saturday, Brooklynfoo of JCConstruction blog went on to the tour to see the place. The photos that you see in this post are from him, so if you want to see more, head over his blogpost, and experience the virtual tour yourself.

I promise you, you won’t regret it.
