"Being able to understand a project from multiple perspectives is essential to success in today's profession. New Jersey has so many complex sites with extraordinary potential — the Bergen Arches being a prime example — and NJIT is playing a meaningful role in researching them and advancing the dialogue about how these sites can be reactivated for the future." - MHS Architecture Partner Vincent Marchetto

Vincent Marchetto recently led “Reconnection: The Bergen Arches”, an NJIT Hillier design studio that tasked students with re-designing the City of Jersey City’s historic rail corridor as a 21st-century greenway and transit connection. 🚂

Working with input from planners, transit agencies, and community stakeholders, students developed proposals addressing public access, mobility, ecology, stormwater management, and future transit opportunities, demonstrating the potential of this unique asset to reconnect neighborhoods and create new public spaces. 🌳 The studio reflects Vincent’s ongoing commitment to mentoring future architects while advancing conversations about the future of New Jersey cities.
