Located adjacent to Pier 54, which is where the Titanic was supposed to dock, this is a great place to walk around and get lost for a while.

My son wanted to have a baseball party for his birthday and we found Primetime Sports by searching…read moreonline for batting cages in Jersey City. They are fairly new but you would not be able to tell from their professionalism, preparation and service. They have figured out the formula for keeping kids entertained and making life easy for the adults. They exceeded every expectation we had along the way! We've always had to do our own set-up for parties and came prepared to do so but were pleasantly surprised to have two staff members there, going above and beyond to ensure everything was arranged to our preferences. They made the birthday boy feel special throughout the whole party, ensuring he got to practice batting in a spot where all the parents could cheer him on, letting him lead the charge in glow-in-the dark tag, and having him go first with all of the activities. Several of the parents watched in awe as their kids learned batting techniques and improved their skills in a matter of minutes with proper positioning and guidance from the coaches. I've never seen such energy from a group of kids! They all had a blast from start to finish - so much fun that they barely wanted to pause for birthday cake and didn't want to leave when the party was over! I wanted to be respectful of our allotted time but the staff at Primetime Sports couldn't have been more accommodating and flexible. We're so pleased to have supported a family-owned business and to have introduced them to a new set of baseball-loving kids and their families. Everyone at Primetime Sports made an effort to get to know us and they felt like our own family by the end. They even sent me all of the pictures and videos they took at the party. I would recommend them to anyone looking for baseball-themed activities or simply an indoor space for an event, because I know they will knock it out of the park!

They are a family-run business and we truly felt like family by the way that they treated us and wanted to make every detail perfect for our birthday boy. The coaches were absolutely fantastic with the kids and I even learned a few tips watching how they took their time to teach each kid. They had amazing games and relay races set up to entertain the kids and I overheard many parents commenting about how this was the least stressful birthday party because they were able to sit back, relax and socialize while all the kids were entertained, safe and having a blast. It was almost hard to get the kids to come over for cake and many of them didn't want to leave when the party was over! The ladies helping with the event piece were amazing. From helping to set-up to serving food, I was impressed by their professionalism and thoughtfulness throughout the event. They even helped us pack up all of our stuff at the end of the party - something they didn't need to do, but they went above and beyond and it was so appreciated. I would highly recommend hosting a party here or bringing your child for coaching!

Nice park up in Union City/JC Heights. It's a crowded mess on the weekends, but what urban park…read moreisn't. Why I love this park? There's about 9-10 tennis courts, so you can usually find an open court without a wait compared to Hamilton Park in JC where you normally have to wait an hour regardless day/time. Along with tennis there's a decent playground for the kids, a baseball diamond (maybe 2), bball hoops and some picnic benches. Not a lot of open space to run around on grass, but nice if you're looking for recreational sports. Not too far from the elevator from the 9th St. light rail, definitely a gem!

I've been playing tennis regularly here since moving to the area 14 years ago. The park has gone…read morethrough a lot of changes (for the better) in that time. The park has been cleaned up quite a bit. They have built a beautiful playground complete with a water park area and new bathrooms. They are in the process of working on a nice garden area on New York Ave and Paterson Plank. The tennis courts were resurfaced a few years ago. They did a nice job. The only negative is that there used to be 10 courts and for some reason they removed one to build a viewing area. This makes it more like the other county parks, except they have bleachers or benches (it looks like they were going to build them, just never did). The result is only 9 courts. Also keep in mind that the Union City High School team uses these courts, so after school in the fall and spring only 4 courts are available for the public, from around 4-6 PM. The Washington park association (WPA) is very active in trying to organize events and festivals. Check out their website.

This place is just hands down AWSOME. Why? Because it is not a place to just hit a few balls (it…read morecan be if you want it to be), it is an entire training facility! Today I made arrangements with my teammates to go to the batting cages. Only four of us were available for practice and going to a field would have been kind of useless. So I went on Yelp and began to look up nearby locations and this is the first place that popped up. Took a moment to look at their rates and was pretty impressed with what I found. Great place to keep in mind if I ever have a kid because the staff is full of professionals with prior baseball and softball experience. Early this morning i made a reservation and I took a deal today which was $50 for one hour. With the $50, you get one lane and can have up to six people with you. Once inside I went to the register in the front. Payment was easy and the man helping us was extremely nice. Everything was all set up for us when we arrived. The guy at the register was more than happy to also adjust the machine to our needs whenever we needed it. I liked this as opposed to a regular batting cage because you have the ability to adjust the pitch. In total, there are four lanes inside the facility. For an hour the four of us were able to take more than enough swings (it wound up being only $12 a person). I was kind of disappointed we didn't bring gloves because we could have even thrown around a little bit! Next time! The one thing I would like to point out is that facility is not for individual use while batting. You need someone with you to feed the pitches to you. All and all, I consider this place a homerun! I will be more than happy to return in the future!

My buddy and I went here yesterday to get some swings in before softball season. We were able to switch between soft toss and taking swings from a machine. We liked the setup, as we were able to control the tempo and # of swings we wanted to take, vs. being at the mercy of a timed machine. $25 for a half hour, $50 for an hour. Pretty solid deal. Online reservations made it pretty easy. Not for solo users - you'll need someone there to feed the machine or soft toss pitches to you. If you're on your own, I suggest calling ahead to see if the owner is available to support you. Union City Parking can be tough, but you're allowed to park right alongside the Hudson Baseball facility on 23rd street (right before you get to Summit). I believe they own those spots, which is pretty clutch.
