Rising from a former surface parking lot in the heart of Downtown Newark

22 Fulton is a major mixed-use, mixed-income residential tower that signals the city’s next chapter of density, walkability, and investment. Set near Broad Street, McCarter Highway, and the Newark Light Rail, the project strengthens a fast-evolving downtown corridor by adding new housing, amenities, and street activation within easy reach of Newark Penn Station and Newark Broad Street Station.

Planned to deliver 396 rental residences (including 80 affordable homes) alongside approximately 4,800 SF of retail and 106 parking spaces, 22 Fulton brings meaningful scale to Newark’s residential pipeline—supporting a more vibrant, lived-in downtown while contributing to long-term neighborhood revitalization.

Dextall’s Role: Performance, Precision, and Speed

For 22 Fulton, Dextall is providing an exterior wall solution engineered to keep ambitious architecture buildable, repeatable, and high-performing:

  • Façade system: DWall 1500
  • Cladding: ACM (Aluminum Composite Material)
  • Design platform: Dextall Studio (enabling coordinated, production-ready façade design)
  • Signature detail to watch: Shadowbox—adding depth, crisp reveal lines, and elevated façade articulation without sacrificing constructability.

This is industrialized façade delivery at its best: design intent translated into manufacturable assemblies, with clear detailing and predictable execution.

Design Highlight: The Shadowbox Detail

The shadowbox is a standout feature on this project—an architectural move that enhances perceived depth and refinement across repetitive bay conditions. It creates sharp visual rhythm and façade “shadow play,” helping the tower read as intentional and crafted at both street level and skyline distance—while remaining compatible with efficient panelized delivery.

Why It Matters for Newark

22 Fulton converts underutilized land into homes, ground-floor activity, and a stronger downtown streetscape, reinforcing Newark’s momentum toward transit-oriented, mixed-use growth. With substantial backing through New Jersey’s Aspire program and recent financing milestones, the project reflects continued institutional confidence in Newark’s future.
