Jersey City Neighborhoods

2007-06-23T11:01:00.000-07:00

Jersey City consists of Six Districts or Wards; Greenville, West Side, Journal Square, The Heights, Downtown, and Bergen/Lafayette. Each of these Districts is comprised of smaller neighborhoods, for example the Paulus Hook Neighborhood of the Downtown District and the Western Slope Neighborhood of The Heights District. Jersey City is a city of neighborhoods, each with a different aesthetic and architectural style, to some degree.

The HeightsAs its name suggests, Jersey City's Heights District is perched high atop the Palisades on the western banks of the Hudson River. Its elevation above the Hudson provides residents and visitors with panoramic views of neighboring Hoboken and the New York City skyline to the east. Elegant Victorian houses are scattered along the main Heights thoroughfares, including Summit Avenue and Kennedy Boulevard. The Heights is even home to Jersey City's oldest house (c. 1740) on Palisades Avenue. Leonard Gordon Park (aka "Mosquito Park"), with its whimsical oversize sculptures of bear and buffalo, is located in the western portion of the Heights, not far from the site of Reservoir #3, the focus of a local preservation effort. Of course, shopping is always important in the Central Avenue Special Improvement District, with its bustling stores and lively community life. The adjoining residential areas allow for easy walking distances to many Jersey City shops and restaurants.
