Westin Jersey City Wants to See Your Big, Teresa Giudice-style Jersey Hair

Where: 479 Washington Boulevard [map], Jersey City, NJ, United States, 07310

Once upon a time, the member of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" making all the headlines was Danielle Staub, aka the "Prostitution Whore." These days, after news of bankruptcy proceedings and anti-semitic comments made by her daughter, it's Teresa Giudice getting all the attention. She's probably best known as the one who called Staub a "prostitution whore" and, in a rage, flipped a table.

Well it turns out that Miss Thang is not only getting attention for herself, but also a New Jersey hotel—the Westin Jersey City-Newport, to be exact. On the newest episode of the reality show, airing Monday July 26, we will get to see Giudice's 10th Anniversary dinner in the Presidential Suite with her husband. Was there more table-flipping? Probably not, but that doesn't mean that the Westin is content to stay quiet in the background.

Westin Jersey City On Hold Until February

Where: 479 Washington Boulevard [map], Jersey City, NJ, United States, 07310

What the Westin JC looks like now.

Find yourself having to come home to Jersey for the holidays but want the option of some New York City action? It's too bad the Westin Jersey City won't be ready for ya! With its proximity to lower Manhattan (one stop to the West Village or two stops to the Financial District) and breathtaking views of the same), the new Westin would have made an excellent option getting in some quality city time over the holiday. Why all the pluperfect subjunctive, you ask? Well, the Westin was originally slated to open its doors this month but now the hot property is delayed until early February 2009.

Westin Jersey City Construction Update

Where: 479 Washington Boulevard [map], Jersey City, NJ, United States, 07310

If anything ever forces you to go to Jersey City (just kidding...sorta), you'll be able to stay in a brand spankin' new Westin as of November 1st. Based on these construction shots we scored, things seem to be coming along nicely and an on-time opening may even be a possibility!

Among the Westin Jersey City's features that may help to make Jersey bearable (kidding again!) are the views of Manhattan:

The suites are all located on the curve of the front of the building.  The bathrooms for the suites will have deep soaking tubs set right by the windows for Manhattan views. The Presidential [suite] will have a 180 degree views from SoHo to Battery Park.

The Westin Jersey City will have plenty of food, too, with two restaurants and 24-hour roomservice planned.
