  • Ny Waterway Commuter Ferry/Bus Network
    From: NY Waterway 4800 Avenue at Port Imperial Weehawken, NJ 07086 Rubenstein Contact: Pat Smith (212) 843-8026 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NY WATERWAY COMMUTER FERRY/BUS NETWORK NY Waterway operates the largest privately-owned commuter ferry service in the U.S., carrying more than 32,000 passenger trips per day – 10 million trips per year – on 34 boats serving 23 routes between New Jersey and Manhattan, and between Rockland and Westchester counties, and between Orange and Dutchess counties. Thousands of NY Waterway ferry commuters save an hour or more per trip, the equivalent of a one-month vacation every year. Ferries provide comfortable seating in climate-controlled cabins, but many passengers elect to ride outdoors, experiencing the exhilaration of the trip and the breath-taking views. Passengers’ biggest complaint is that the ride is too short. A fleet of 70 NY Waterway buses provide a free, seamless commute between ferry terminals in New York and New Jersey and inland locations. “Our commuter ferries provide safe, convenient and efficient commuter services, reducing traffic and pollution in the Metropolitan area,” says NY Waterway President & Founder Arthur E. Imperatore, who started the business in 1986. Operating out of beautiful ferry terminals on both sides of the Hudson River, NY Waterway provides an unrivaled commuting experience. Commuter routes include: Port Imperial in Weehawken NJ, to West 39th Street in Manhattan, all day, seven days a week. Port Imperial to Brookfield Place / Battery Park City Ferry Terminal, morning/evening rush hours, weekdays; all day weekends. Port Imperial to Pier 11 at Wall Street, morning/evening rush hours, weekdays.

Information and financial data concerning GSPT financing, recent appropriations and agency operations are contained in the chapters which follow the acreage tables. This is to be construed as the full annual report of the Garden State Preservation Trust for the 2011 Fiscal Year in compliance with P.L. 1999 C.152 section 8C-15.

  • Remarks on the History of Hudson County in Relation to Old Bergen Church and Its Community
    Remarks on the History of Hudson County in Relation to Old Bergen Church and its Community Presented by Bob Murgittroyd (historian) during the program “Slice of History”(part of Old Bergen Church’s 350 th Anniversary celebration) on May 14, 2010 at the Brennan Courthouse, Jersey City, NJ Settlement of Bergen Tonight’s alloted time does not permit a lengthy re-telling of the history of our area but I have been asked to offer glimpses of the history of Hudson County during the 350 years of its existence. Today it is hard to imagine Hudson County as the edge of the American frontier, but from the time Henry Hudson sailed into the New York Bay in 1609 until the founding of the Town of Bergen in 1660, that is exactly what is was. During those 51 years settlers to the area experienced both the rewards and perils of living in a wildness area filled with rich natural resources and a native people whose cultural would often clash with their own. Almost immediately upon Hudson’s return to the Netherlands the prosperous merchants who had financed his voyage of discovery sought to exploit their investment in the area then named New Amsterdam. One commodity found by Hudson’s travels seemed to offer the best chance for immediate financial reward, the pelts of American beaver which were then so highly prized in Europe. For the next twelve years parties of men were sent to the area to establish small trading posts to barter with the natives for the valuable beaver skins.

  • 2. EXISTING CONDITIONS 2.1 History of Circulation in Jersey City 2.2
    Jersey City Master Plan / Circulation Element 2. EXISTING CONDITIONS As part of the background work in developing this Circulation Element, a detailed assessment of the history of circulation in Jersey City and an inventory of the baseline conditions of the City’s transportation system were prepared. 2.1 History of Circulation in Jersey City Photo Source: Jersey City Division of City Planning Strategically located on the Hudson River and with easy access to Upper New York Bay, the City of Jersey City was an important center for shipping and maritime activity during the peak of the industrial revolution of the early nineteenth century. This status was reinforced when the Morris Canal was completed at Jersey City in 1836, giving the City shared direct linkage with the Delaware River at Phillipsburg and with important inland points, such as Newark and Paterson. Jersey City continued to serve as a transit point between Upper New York Bay and inland points to the west, but as the industrial revolution progressed, new technologies enabled the development of newer, more efficient forms of transport than canals. Consequently, railroads followed and terminals were constructed along the Hudson River waterfront and other points in the City. One example is the historic Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal, which originally opened in 1864 and is located in what is now Liberty State Park. With terminals located on the Hudson River, it was not long before ideas about a rail linkage to New York City began to evolve. This led to the construction of what is now known as the Port Authority Trans-Hudson (PATH) train, which commenced operations in 1907 after many arduous years of tunneling under the Hudson River.
