Hidden gem. Spectacular views of New York harbor. A must see. Bring a picnic lunch.
Lovely space tucked (hidden) away on the water.
It's difficult to know this place exists unless you look at Google (Apple) maps and stumble upon it. You will have to drive past a residential section and then a large shipping area and finally the cruise port before getting to this place.
It has a large parking lot and was very quiet and empty when I visited at about 5:30pm on a Wednesday. The park has some benches and is very well-maintained. There were a few people there fishing by the waterline as well.
The highlight of the park of course if the tear drop memorial...which is massive and beautiful. It was a gift from Russia in 2006 following the 1993 and 2001 WTC attacks. There is some interesting information about the monument, its history and construction on the official website. I suggest you take a quick look before going.
There was one port-a-potty there but not the cleanest place to "go" as most port-a-pottys are.

a 10–story sculpture by Zurab Tsereteli that was given to the United States as an official gift from the Russian government as a memorial to the victims of the September 11 attacks in 2001, and the 1993 World Trade Center bombing
The place is quite remote, but well maintained and cozy. There is parking, there is drinking water in the fountain. The sculpture is huge. This artist loves huge sculptures, he is probably paid by size and weight. It is very sad to look at the names of people.
Breathtaking memorial. Sad that it’s out of the way. I hope as many people as possible get to see this.
Beautiful memorial sculpture in honor of 9/11 victims. More amazing in person than any picture. Statue of Liberty is visible from this memorial
One of my favorite places to date in the NJ/NY area. Such a shame it was “outcasted” to a random location, as far away from the normal travelers path.
Teardrop Memorial in Bayonne NJ stands 100 feet tall with a 40 foot Teardrop inside the tower given by people Russia and I think they have removed Putin's name!!
Must see place in NJ.
