Would cię not work here, instead of was? Was (here) is the genitive of wy, but nothing in the English sentence indicates this is speaking to more than one person, so the genitive of the singular version of wy (ty), cię, seems like it would fit?
There are two possible options for Genitive of singular 'you': accented "ciebie" and neutral 'cię'. Only the accented form should be at the end of the sentence (unless the sentence is literally 2, sometimes 3 words long). So it would be "Stoję naprzeciwko ciebie".
It's hard to say when 'cię' would be okay for 3-word sentence and when it's not. It sounds wrong to me here.

Wyszedłem naprzeciw tobie. Idę naprzeciw tobie. Wyjdę ci naprzeciw. (Ruch) Ale... Stoję naprzeciwko ciebie/sklepu. (Statycznie)
Tak jest poprawnie.
