The Feel of Hudson County Real Estate
Hudson County might be the smallest New Jersey County, but its offerings are
among the largest. See yourself, as a Hudson County Real Estate owner, trying
to decide which exciting activity to do next. Visit Ellis or Liberty Island,
which lie in Hudson County waters and enjoy stunning views of the great lady
herself, the Statue of Liberty. Explore Hudson’s prolific history, take a
stroll along the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway, have a picnic in Liberty
State Park, or take a dinner cruise.
Known as the "Gateway to America," Hudson County has a rich historical
background. Named for the explorer Henry Hudson and established in 1661, the
county was the first stop for many immigrants who first set their feet upon
American ground at Ellis Island. It has one of the oldest settlements in
America making it one the most diverse places to live in the country.
Hudson Hubs Mean Easy Travel
Hudson County is basically a peninsula surrounded by the Hackensack River,
Newark Bay, Kill Van Kull, and the mighty Hudson River, making it one of the
major transportation hubs in the country. The Lincoln and Holland Tunnels make
a short trip to Manhattan Island, as do the Bayonne Bridge and the New Jersey
Turnpike.
Alternative travel abounds with trains, buses, ferries, light rail services, and
PATH, a 24-hour mass transit system. Once an industrial hub, Hudson County is
now growing into a major financial hub with corporations such as Goldman Sachs,
Dean Witter, Merrill Lynch, Paine Weber, and Bank of Tokyo settling in.
