    A great place to spend time..beautiful NYC downtown skyline is visible from this spot. There are commute options available to NYC i.e. PATH train and also water taxi.. it also has a well connected board walk.. overall a great place with a great atmosphere..parking is difficult so plan on advance ..there are plenty of garages available nearby..

    Can't complain about the views here. Always nice for a waterfront walk or bike ride. Plenty of seating along the waterfront and access to the PATH or ferry into NYC. Plenty of food spots here as well.

    The best place to admire the the NY skyline is from this place in NJ. There are so many things happening around. We saw a group of people dancing with ribbons and also a group of acapella singers. You can see this place from the skyscrapers in NY as well. You can also get a glimpse of the Statue of Liberty from here.

  • 4/5 Navaneetha u. 11 months ago on Google • 153 reviews
    Beautiful place. Very relaxing to sit n watch the high-rise buildings at other end of new jersey. The waterfront is scenic. From this pier, you have an excellent view of the Lower Manhattan Skyline. You may walk on Hudson River Waterfront Walkway - access between PATH station and Hyatt Regency. There is a playarea for kids to get engaged. The evening to night transition is a must watch when all the lights are lit inside the buildings.

    One of the best view of Newyork city! I suggest you go late at night to get parking right next to this view. Grab something to eat, go with your friends and enjoy the view while having your dinner.

    Amazing Park, very nice place to see the NYC skyline and very peaceful as well! Nice playground nearby for kids and plenty of outdoor seating available, when I was there, a cruise ship passed by the Manhattan skyline creating a nice photo opportunity. I highly recommend visiting!

    Breath taking view of the New York skyline! Suprised it was quiet, some people walking, some doing tik tok dancing video's, some eating on the benches plenty of seating. Limited Parking but eases up after the sun sets. There’s a light rail nearby and exchange station to reach here.

    Most beautiful view of NYC shore and skyline from this pier. Vibrant place, with loads of activities every now and then arranged by various authorities and organizations. Love this place. Peaceful and surreal.

    Sitting out on the Harbor reading a book from the Jersey City side is the best. The view of NYC without the noise and crowd of NYC. Love it! Had some tacos and a sprite at one of the many places to sit and eat, people watch, or just chill. If tourists ever found out about the view of the skyline from the Jersey side, it's game over! Shhhh!

    This place provides an excellent view of NY skyline overlooking the Hudson river. Offers some stunning views and amazing photo click opportunities. The park is very accessible and can be reached by path, light rail or on road at exchange place station. Highly recommended spot if you are in Jersey city.

    Great place to visit and take pictures of the NYC Skyline. Very clean and well taken care of. Fairly peaceful and a great place to relax and enjoy the view.

  • 3/5 Sreejit M. 2 years ago on Google
    Good place to visit and spend time though parking is a good challenge in case you are not lucky enough ! Alternative would be paid parking nearby which in weekends are reasonable for the whole day if you choose to spend that much of time. The Colgate clock is a must visit here.

    Its a good morning or evening walk place. The broad-walk, the garden and the NYC views. It has quickly became a tourist stop too. For some great nyc views and great scenery do visit.

    Breath taking view of New York City from this park. Whole downtown is visible and it’s beautiful anytime you go. There’s a light rail nearby and exchange station to reach here. Good coffee places and there’s a board walk. You can enjoy the sunset while having a walk with a coffee 😀

    I could probably seat here all night. Had a great time with the family tonight. Great place for pictures. There’s a small area to park, I was lucky and got one spot (free). There’s a Starbucks in the corner and a few food trucks in the area.

    Very nice spot where you can see the Empire State, WTC, Verrazzano Bridge and even the Statue of Liberty from New Jersey ! Great park/dock with benches as well. The sunset is beautiful there.

    If this doesn't inspire you ~ you ain't made for New York City. The cool breeze over the Hudson while viewing the iconic New York City skyline is an absolutely soothing and calming experience to unwind from a long day at work or touring the city and give those eyes and heels a well deserved break.

    Best view of NYC. Not crowed during office times. Peaceful surroundings to watch a busy city.

  • 5/5 mt_legend _10 (. 4 months ago on Google • 72 reviews
    One of the best parks NJ has to offer. Ferry station, Christmas decoration, beautiful views of lower Manhattan seeing World Trade Center and many great food locations in the area. Very relaxing park to have a nice walk.

    I was here on Friday night!! One of the greatest weekends I was there. The view was awesome. Literally it was very much motivating.

  • 5/5 Viv C. 9 months ago on Google
    Very nice area they always have events. I went to a salsa event and it was very fun. Parking is a bit challenging but there is a hotel near that has a parking garage.

  • 5/5 Linda M. 8 months ago on Google
    More pier than park, but it's nice. Right on the water so you get a nice breeze and beautiful city views, and they have fun activities. This past Saturday was my first time there and they had a live band and salsa dancing.

    From manhattan you have to take subway. I took the WTC subway. it cost u 2.75 per journey.

  • 5/5 Parker W. 11 months ago on Google
    Best views of the city hands down. Lots of space for kids to run around.

  • 5/5 ITravelElite 11 months ago on Google
    Nice area for a great walk and beautiful views. This area is changing to a upscale neighborhood with expensive appartements and a Whole Food is coming this month. About safety: Watch out for people asking for money and other small talks. We noticed some teenage groups who were asking money to regular people. I did not see any safety guards or police and this should be. Exhange Place and Grove Street are becoming more and more popular and this also attracts crime.

    One of the best options to view the fireworks from NJ on special occasions. Amazing view of Manhattan.

  • 5/5 Hemanth Kumar K. 8 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 E S. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is one of its kind Has amazing view and seating arrangements for birthdays surprises and what not!! We walked the promenade and enjoy the peaceful breeze with our family. There is ample light to bring food with family and friends to enjoy. It’s right next to a path station so no worries in travel time

  • 5/5 Abhishek P. 6 months ago on Google
    Probably the best part of the JC waterfront. Considering how sparse the rest of it is, this park does a lot of heavy lifting in terms of events and providing a communal space for residents

  • 5/5 Sridharan P. 5 months ago on Google
    You get the best views of Manhattan from this place. From Exchange Place to Hoboken the views are great. Evenings on a sunny day are the best time to visit. Gregorys Coffee at Exchange place is a nice option for your Coffee.

  • 5/5 Bruce G. 2 years ago on Google
    I love coming to the spot go take pictures of New York City and to eat all the great food in the area . The great spot to photograph lightning strikes over New York City because they have a covered little area to protect you from the rain .

  • 5/5 Vinod K. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best place to spend evening time. Amazing views of Lower Manhattan. Beautifully designed area to seat and soak views and spend time. Highly recommend to visit at least once. Free parking is not available but you can park on street and near by paid parking spaces.
