The Oculus
Designed by the Spanish Architect Santiago Calatrava, the Oculus represents a freebird in flight. Finished in 2016 as part of the 9/11 Memorial. 300,000 people come here a day from the 13 subway lines and shopping area.
Downtown Jersey City, New Jersey - Waterfront 9/11 Memorial - #8
The perfect photo opportunity is from the public pier, Exchange Place, Jersey City. The first tall buildings started here in Jersey City with Goldman Sachs in 2004. The rebuilt Colgate clock of 1924 is a holdover from the toothpaste factory. That area is now office/residential. American History is at this stop as well: The Harsimus Cove Battle of the American Revolution. Robert Fulton started a steam ferry to NYC in 1813. The Morris Canal of 1830s began here with a stop on the 1850s Underground Slave Railway.
Historic Jersey City & Harsimus Cemetery
In the 1890s, this area was the busiest rail passenger center in America. Today, it's one station a mile north. But this onetime lonely railyard in the 1970s is now one of America's highest household income zip codes.
