The history of skyscrapers in Jersey City began with the 1928 completion of Labor Bank Building, which is often regarded as the first skyscraper in the city; it rises 15 floors and 179 feet (55 m) in height.[4][5] The building, now known as "26 Journal Square", was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[4] Jersey City went through a relatively small building boom in the late 1980s and early 1990s and then entered a larger period of commercial and residential high-rise construction in the late 1990s. This second boom has resulted in the construction of many of the city's tallest buildings, including 30 Hudson Street and the Harborside Financial Center development. The construction boom has continued to the present.[6] Since 2002, the city has seen consistent growth in the number of new buildings that are 410 feet (125 m) or higher.[7] As of February 2022, there are 122 completed high-rises in the city.[8] Thirty completed buildings stand at least 410 feet (125 m) in height.

In addition, Jersey City's skyline is ranked (based on completed buildings over 492 feet (150 m) tall as of November 2022) first in New Jersey with 17 buildings, third in the Northeast (after New York City, and Boston), 10th in the United States, and 79th in the world.[A]
