Timing could not be better to commence construction of this major development. Jersey’s economy is currently in a strong position and the trend is set to continue. The latest record employment figures are contributing to a buoyant residential property market, and activity is currently at an all-time high creating significant demand for one and two-bedroom apartments.
JDC’s aim is to create a new standard in waterside living, reflecting the waterfront as a distinctive, thriving community, promoting an active and social lifestyle.
Horizon will be a landmark development for St. Helier, designed by one of the largest and most influential architecture firms in the world, Skidmore, Owings and Merrill LLP (SOM International). SOM International are renowned for their iconic

outstanding development which will create a new landmark district that sympathetically reflects its setting. Their aim was to provide a series of residential buildings of international stature, establishing a strong identity amongst its surrounding neighbours. The new district will offer a visual experience that makes people feel part of a modern, sophisticated townscape with avenues, terraces and public spaces which provide relaxed and comfortable surroundings for people to live, work, relax and enjoy.
The development increases the connection between the waterfront and the town centre with the creation of two new pedestrian avenues leading down to the Elizabeth marina. These converging avenues will provide opportunity for a rich pedestrian environment with cafes, restaurants and shops
adding colour and vibrancy to the area.
The buildings’ geometric design allows the majority of residences to benefit from extraordinary views overlooking Elizabeth Castle, the waterfront and/or the marina. Each apartment has been individually designed and maximises the use of natural light with floor to ceiling windows. Residents will enjoy high-quality surroundings with fixtures and fittings sourced from specialist, premium retailers.
For example, the contemporary kitchens have been sourced from Italy and purchasers opting for the platinum and gold luxury kitchen fit-out options will benefit from quartz work surfaces and soft closing handle-less doors and drawers.
All of the two and three- bedroom apartments and one- bedroom penthouses come with underground parking and secure storage conveniently located in the basement.
The ground level restaurant and retail quarter will include 20,000 sq ft of commercial opportunities for local and national businesses to grow and develop. When
