A beautiful park and especially at night :)…read more I stopped by recently with my girlfriend so she could show me all it has to offer and it has a lot. It has a beautiful view of the bridge and the docks, an amazing garden, gorgeous gazebos, and so much to offer a wide variety of people just looking to take a walk or play some hoops. It's safe anytime of the day and there is always a police presence here. I could spend hours here doing nothing but enjoying it for all that it is while laying on a blanket people watching. See you again soon :)

The park is big and there's a big parking lot but please note that during busy concerts the parking lot gets full so you can expect to park on the street if you don't arrive at least 30 minutes in advance. Also expect a slow moving line when leaving the park on busy days. But overall this is a nice park!

5/26/25: We went to visit the Tear Drop Memorial. It's also…read moreknown as the "Tear of Grief". The monument is located in Harbor View Park at 51 Port Terminal Blvd. Bayonne, NJ. This sculpture is "Absolutely Stunning" in person. It's made from Bronze, Stainless Steel and Steel. In 2006, the "Tear Drop" was a gift from the people of Russia as a memorial to the victims who died in the terrorist attacks on World Trade Center September 11, 2001 and the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. The Monument was created by Georgian- Russian Artist/Sculptor Zurab Tsereteli. This master artist recently passed in April 2025. While in the Harborview Park, you'll see a memorial area for the residents of Bayonne who died in both terrorist attacks. The park does have benches for people to sit and reflect. The park has a Porta John. However, I would strongly recommend bringing your own tissues. Harborview Park is a must see when in the NJ/NY area.

What better place to go than Liberty State Park. I have been here a few times in the past when I lived in the area. I actually played in a college baseball game back in the late 80's when they had a field here. Well, the field is long gone and the park is run by the US Park Service. It's a well maintained facility and provides great views of Lower Manhattan, Jersey City, Downtown Brooklyn, Ellis Island, Lady Liberty and the lower Hudson Bay. Fun fact, the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island are in New Jersey geographically. I was here for a little over an hour before it got hot. I walked about 2.5 miles from the parking lot to the shore line and south to the end. It was nice break. And by the way, parking is free and there are bathrooms on site.

Amazing views, very clean park, pleasant place to visit that also felt secure. We visited on a…read moreSaturday afternoon - we saw the 9/11 memorial which was touching. We parked at one lot and then drove over to another lot to be able to see Lady Liberty. Loved that there were plenty of benches to sit and enjoy the view and sounds. There was a strong police presence (while not excessive) so it just felt safer. Side note: I really wish you could walk or ride over to visit Ellis Island from the park since there's a narrow bridge that crosses over, but it's not possible.
