It sucks to press on the button of your floor to see it not work and then you have to tell people to move aside so you have space to press the button on other other working side. These elevators need to be renovated fast as possible with the buttons.

I have never, in my entire life, had such a painless experience with any sort of government office…read more I'm not sure if it's just the Marriage Licenses & Records department, but I've never seen such government efficiency before. We were in and out in fifteen minutes. There was no line. NO LINE. When one of the windows opened up, we stepped up talked to a nice young gentleman who swiftly took our information and payment, and handed us a marriage license in return. Not even a little muss, nor was their a hint of fuss. I suppose it's only fitting that it was this simple to get our marriage license...because after all, isn't that what they say about marriage? That it's really easy, and you don't have to work at it at all?

10/4/25 Visit: We came to visit the large crane in the park…read more The Crane is a magnificent structure "not to be missed". The crane was manufactured by the Electric Launch Company (ELCO). It was used to lift the PT boats used in WWII. In the park, there's a plaque dedicated to the people who worked at the Elco Co. along with the service people who served on the PT boats. The park has other highlights: - Stunning marsh birds. - Enclosed viewing areas of the waters. - Lovely wooden bridge. - Benches. Looks like fishing is good here, as we saw several men fishing. During our visit, we did see law enforcement patrolling the area. Unfortunately, the restrooms needed attention. Other than the restrooms, The Richard A. Rutkowski Park is a "must see". There's ample parking along the water.

I bet you never heard of Buono Beach. I never had, till I went to visit the Alice Austen House…read moreMuseum. Buono Beach borders the Alice Austen House property, and runs along the shore for the equivalent of about 3 blocks. The beach itself is rocky and uneven, but people still enjoy it, fishing, picking up sea glass, and taking in the view of Manhattan and Jersey City. A 1997 renovation added a paved walkway along the length of the beach, and a memorial fountain.

I am also so happy that Wheeler park welcomes everyone from all over NJ (and elsewhere). Coming from out of the county will cost you a bit more, but not much. If you live outside of Union County it is $4.00 for kids ($2.00 in county) and $6.00 for adults ($3.00 in county). This splash pad has every water feature a kid could ever need - from bigger twisty water slides, to a small dragon water slide. Also, water guns that you can shoot each other with, a pirate boat, water shooting up from the ground, and much more. My kids spent a little over 2 hours here and had an absolute blast. We've been here about 3 times and it never disappoints. Just be sure to bring some sort of shade covering. There isn't much cover at the splash pad so we usually bring our small beach tent with us. There is also a dry playground in the splash pad gated area where kids can play too. They have staff who help keep the kids safe and to make sure everyone goes down the water slides safe and sound. I highly recommend Wheeler Spray Park on a hot summer day.

Came here because it's one of the few, or as far as I know, the only 24 Hour fishing piers. Had no idea that the bathroom closes around 6pm, so you're pretty much screwed if you stay over night. Also, there is a sign that if you catch the crabs, to throw them back, because if you eat them, it can cause cancer. (Bad omen) I had no idea the water here was that polluted. I fished here for a few hours, caught a small striper, and black sea bass, no keepers, but the heaviest things that I caught were bags and bags of trash. Absolutely disgusting! I can't believe there is so much pollution and garbage in this water. Such a shame people are ruining nature like this. No wonder they tell you not to eat the crabs. I legit thought I was going to be sick at the stench of the trash bags. I was really hoping that this could have been a new fishing spot because I love night fishing, but after this experience, no thank you!
