Image via Google Maps.<\/p>\n<p>A 10-story mixed-use project has been greenlit in the Peninsula City and will create a new community center just off the Broadway corridor.<\/p>\n<p>Two Bayonne-based companies named J. Par Realty LLC &amp; PKD LLC won approvals back in July to revamp the former Forum Fitness Club property at 21-29, 35 and 37 West 25th Street. The one-story building at the property is slated to be demolished under the plans, which were drawn up by Hoboken-based MHS Architecture.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-92123\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/pacifico-bayonne-1024x885.png\" alt=\"Pacifico Bayonne\" width=\"696\" height=\"602\"  \/>The development, called Pacifico, will include a two-floor community space. Rendering by MHS Architecture.<\/p>\n<p>The development, which is referred to as Pacifico in the submitted drawings, is slated to feature 182 residential units plus 216 parking spaces. The deal will create approximately 12,050 square feet of public community space on the property\u2019s first two floors.<\/p>\n<p>Over 10,000 square feet of amenities across the third and tenth floors are included in the project, as is a rooftop amenity space. 128 bicycle parking spaces are additionally featured in the design of the building, which is slated to utilize brick and metal panels on the exterior.<\/p>\n<p>Getting the development approved was not without controversy.
