Former LV and CNJ propriety now Liberty State park in Jersey City NJ. Almost all the open land shown here was at one time covered with hundreds of miles of track, ferry slips, Coal docks, passenger yards, freight yards, cement facilities, 3 round houses, 4 turntables ( one was for busses ), Blacksmith shops, carpentry shops, team tracks, locomotive shops, rip tracks,, the list goes on and on.. I have only scratched the surface. it's all gone now except for the CNJ's terminal. I grabbed this shot from the roof of the Liberty towers, 37 stories up on the roof. also in this shot is Ellis island, the statue of liberty, the Verrazano bridge, and Brooklyn.
