JERSEY CITY, NJ — Food Story Natural Market — an organic food market with four stores in Brooklyn — will open its first New Jersey location this spring in the 68-story Journal Squared Tower in Journal Square, representatives said Thursday.

"It's a thriving commercial and residential neighborhood." The market has signed a lease for nearly 10,000 square feet of space at the residential tower. "The market will serve the community at large with an extensive offering of natural and organic products, including meats, fish, sushi, fresh produce, and hot and cold foods, all prepared on the premises. The store will also carry fresh flowers and plants," said a spokesperson.
