The Powerhouse, built in 1906 to provide power to the Hudson Tubes, is “the greatest building in the metropolitan area,” according to John Gomez, founder and former president of the Jersey City Landmarks Conservancy.

“It’s gloomy, it’s Gothic,” Gomez said. “You don’t see these types of buildings around anymore. It’s a rare industrial relic of its age, and we have it in Jersey City. It’s ours.”
