The Bayonne Historic Commission reviewed a newly filed application for 78 West 16th Street and agreed to place it on upcoming agendas for additional consideration.
Commissioners said the property packet describes the structure as a three‑story residential building on the south side of West 16th Street between M.U.C. and Broadway and that the applicant seeks exterior changes. Several commissioners said the property “doesn't look like a landmark” in the materials provided and asked staff to include the application on the commission’s next meeting agenda for further review. The commission noted the item was on the municipal agenda for a public hearing on Dec. 15 and said the commission would discuss it at its Dec. 1 meeting to prepare comments.
No formal designation or vote occurred at Tuesday’s meeting; commissioners requested copies of the application packet for all members and asked staff to confirm the Dec. 15 hearing date and to place the item on the December 1 commission agenda for a substantive review.
