Across the Water blends real estate, hospitality, design, and community storytelling into a single, cinematic viewing experience — anchored by Tanielle Powell as host, tastemaker, and resident insider.
Set in Jersey City and produced by REAL Shows Network's Emmy-nominated, Telly Award–winning team, the series places viewers inside the homes, restaurants, and conversations defining a market most New Yorkers haven't fully discovered yet.
Distinctive properties, behind-the-scenes builds, neighborhood deep-dives, and the deals shaping a $1B+ skyline market.
Restaurants, rooftops, marinas, hotels, art, and design — the cultural moments that make the city feel like home.
Founders, civic leaders, nonprofits, and local makers who define what Jersey City is becoming next.
Tanielle Powell is the founder of The Powell Group at Prominent Properties Sotheby's International Realty and a rising voice in luxury real estate and lifestyle media — recognized for a refined aesthetic and a highly personalized approach across the New Jersey + New York markets.
Born in South Africa and shaped by an earlier life on stage as an actress, singer, and dancer, Tanielle brings a performer's instinct to the camera. Her debut series, Across the Water, expands that voice into national lifestyle media.
