Hidden in plain sight, Weehawken Cove whispers tales of time. Weehawken Cove sits quietly on the Hudson River’s west bank, nestled between Hoboken and Weehawken. Along its edges, the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway offers breathtaking views of Manhattan and the Palisades. The name “Weehawken” itself comes from the Lenape, meaning “at the end of.” It could refer to the Palisades’ edge or the stream that once flowed into Weehawken Cove. This stream later became the site of the Lincoln Tunnel. In 1609, Robert Juet, first mate aboard Henry Hudson’s Half Moon, anchored in Weehawken Cove. He documented the “white-green” cliffs of Castle Point, speculating about a copper or silver mine. Centuries later, the south side of Weehawken Cove boasted the Lipton Tea plant and warehouse. Now transformed into the Hudson Tea Buildings, they stand as a reminder of the cove’s industrial past. New apartment complexes have sprung up along the cove in recent years, changing the landscape once again. Just north of Weehawken Cove, Lincoln Harbor emerged from the former Erie Railroad Weehawken Yard. This area offers a mix of residential, commercial, and recreational spaces, demonstrating the constant evolution of Weehawken Cove and its surroundings.
