The Weehawken Waterfront and Hamilton Park (Hamilton Ave, Weehawken, NJ 07086) perch on the Palisades directly above the Lincoln Tunnel, delivering some of the most dramatic unobstructed views of the Midtown Manhattan skyline in the entire metro area. The site is also historically significant — it is the location of the 1804 Burr-Hamilton duel. For wedding parties, it is one of the most sought-after photo locations in Hudson County, with a grassy esplanade and a bronze Hamilton statue as backdrop.
For corporate group outings and private events, the waterfront path connects to the Port Imperial ferry terminal (the Weehawken Terminal at 2800 Park Ave) for groups crossing into Midtown. Street parking along Hamilton Avenue is extremely limited on weekends; a minibus drops your group at the park entrance, waits nearby while you take photos, and picks up on the same block. For evening events, the light on the Manhattan skyline peaks around 8–9 p.m. in summer — build that into your itinerary if photography is the goal.
Call 551-233-0076 to arrange a waterfront photo stop as part of any Union City party bus itinerary.
