Big new building going up

In heading to the Cathedral a couple of weeks ago I saw this tall building under construction at Norfolk Street and West Market Street. Tho I looked for a sign announcing what it is, I saw none. I checked the UMDNJ website, since it adjoins the University's campus, but there's just a big white rectangle shown on the map there. So I don't know what it is. It could be offices, dormitories, apartments, classrooms. I have no idea. Do you?

Here's a wide view, showing the new construction beyond mechanical structures and a parking garage for UMDNJ.

Here's a closer view, showing the new building on the left, the Cathedral off in the distance in the middle, and a new high school going up on the right. The things on the roof appear to be solar collectors. I think this is to be a science high school, but I need to go back to get pix and more info.

You'd think the people building the New Newark would be proud to announce what's going up. Get with the program, people!
