Weehawken, Residential township in Hudson County, United States
Weehawken extends across 1.5 square miles of land at 44 meters elevation, featuring tree-lined streets and parks along the Hudson River.
The Dutch settled this area in 1647, and Maryn Adriadsen received a patent for 169 acres of land before the township incorporation in 1859.
The Hamilton Park memorial contains a bronze bust and semicircular wall marking the location of the 1804 duel between Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr.
The Lincoln Tunnel portal, NJ Transit buses, Hudson-Bergen Light Rail, and NY Waterway ferries connect residents directly to Manhattan and surrounding areas.
The Weehawken Water Tower, constructed in 1883, mirrors the architectural design of Florence's Palazzo Vecchio in Italy.
