Hudson County Administration Building

The Hudson County Administration Building is a ten-story courthouse located at 595 Newark Avenue in Jersey City, featuring clean mid-century modern architecture. Inside, multiple departments handle court administration and serve people who need to file documents or handle legal matters related to the county courts.

The building was constructed between 1955 and 1957 as a modern replacement for older court facilities in the area. Once a new justice complex is completed, the site will serve a different purpose for the community.

The facility stands as a central part of Jersey City's governmental district, housing multiple divisions that manage different aspects of the court system.

The building is open on weekdays for people who need to handle court matters or file documents. It's best to arrive in the morning and bring any papers you need for your specific business.

Once the new Frank J. Guarini Justice Complex is completed, the building site will be transformed into a three-acre public park. This conversion will bring green space to Jersey City's government district.
