What to expect
The Oculus

15 minutes
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.
30 minutes
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.
30 minutes
Newport Centre
The Erie Railroad left in 1958. Then in 1986 came the Newport shopping center. The World's first auto tunnel was completed here in 1927, the Holland Tunnel. Did you know this tunnel was built in a national emergency? One may return here after the tour for the food court. But we recommend Battello's on the pier in the Hudson.
15 minutes
Jersey City
Of the ten tallest buildings in New Jersey, nine are here. But again, in the 1970s this place was a railyard. How did this 'Gold Coast' begin in the early 90's. Also hear about James Gandolfini, Loretta Switt, Flip Wilson and other famous actors.
30 minutes
Hoboken
See Carlo's bakery from the Food Network as well as the famed Lackawanna train station from 1907. Get another photo op of NYC. At the end, tourists may take the PATH train back to NYC or the ferry.
