Attractions
With immigrants coming through the Immigration Station on Ellis Island in the late 19th century, the Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal became their first experience on American soil. They were able to take trains to anywhere throughout New Jersey and into other states. It became one of the busiest stations in the area until its eventual shutdown in 1967. Now part of Liberty State Park, the restored terminal serves as a historic site and a place where visitors can get the ferry to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.

The Empty Sky Memorial honors the 749 people from New Jersey who lost their lives during the September 11th attacks. Their names are engraved into two tall silver walls that make up the memorial. When visitors walk down the granite path between the walls, it will lead them to where the World Trade Center buildings once stood across the Hudson River. Located near the Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal, the memorial “remembers those lost while simply and powerfully connecting New Jersey to Ground Zero.”

The Colgate Clock has been ticking since it was built in 1924. It initially sat on top of the former Colgate factory in Jersey City. Now in an empty lot near the Goldman Sachs building, its 50-foot (15.2-meter) diameter makes this timekeeper one of the largest in the world. It is definitely a sight to see as it’s been a fixture of Jersey City’s waterfront for the almost a century.
