Im clearing out my laptop of 17k pictures from the past 2 years. I got a new camera and need to dispose of the old ones. they are backed up since I never throw anything away but it makes for a good opportunity to show some places that may not get alot of love.
JERSEY CITY-summer 2008
Jersey City sits directly across the river from Downtown Manhattan. As space in lower Manhattan has gotten tighter, spillover development has happened in downtown Brooklyn which is directly across the East River and here, right across the Hudson River. It has direct access to lower manhattan via the PATH system. jersey City is seperated into 2 major commercial districts. one around the Exchange Place Path station and another around the Newport Path station.
This is the exchange place Path station. its a one stop ride to the World Trade Center across the river
The view across the river to lower Manhattan
30 Hudson AKAGoldman Sachs-tallest building in the state of New Jersey
More of the lower Manhattan view
Looking over the soho, Greenwich village area. the standout tower is Trump Soho
I love towers that are directly on a waterfront.
30 Hudson is a very good looking tower. Its a Pelli Tower and is like a younger smaller cousin to his Union Square tower in Hong Kong
The famous Colgate clock. Doesn't look like much now. they should rehabilitate it and the area around it
More 30 hudson
Great tower, but not perfect. Not a fan of this
She's just under 800 feet. Around the height of Boston's tallest. John Hancock.
light rail station
Its a Trump, but its looks really good from most angles
The new headquarters from Goldman sachs terminates this street. you hardly realize that there is a 2 mile wide river in between
the Holland Tunnel Ventilation tower and Midtown Manhattan in the background
Abandoned park on a pier in Newport
the very long midtown skyline
Newport Center Mall. Like everything else in the area, its built tall
