Visiting the Weehawken World War One Memorial was a remarkable experience for me. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the beauty and grandeur of the memorial. The statue, "The Spirit of the American Doughboy," stands strong and proud, serving as a moving tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
The statue was incredibly detailed, and its placement in a quiet, serene setting made it feel even more powerful. Additionally, the surrounding plaques detailing the names of local heroes who lost their lives in the war made the experience even more poignant.
The staff on-site was very friendly and knowledgeable, providing more context to the monument and the significance of the war. The decision to preserve and honor this important part of our history deserves recognition and appreciation.
Overall, visiting the Weehawken World War One Memorial was an emotional and profound experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to honor and remember the sacrifices of our past heroes. Therefore, I give this memorial a 5-star rating. If you find yourself in the area, take the time to visit this beautiful and...
Read moreThis park is right on a cliff across the midtown NYC. I am a regular visitor of this place called Hamilton Park. I like to go at least once every season. And believe me the view is unique anytime you see it. Sunny day, cloudy day, foggy day, rainy day or snowy day!! You will get some memorable views in any weather day!! Plenty of benches to be seated and soak the view. Freedom tower in south and midtown right in front of you across the Hudson. Street parking is allowed for everyone on Holidays and on Sundays from 7a to 10p for everyone who visits. Drive around slowly on the side streets and observe the beautiful architecture of the surrounding homes. The park is small but good enough to hold some mini concerts from local jazz, rock and international music. In summer they host a band on every Sunday mostly during July and August. It is a great place to feel tranquility of A very noisy and somewhat chaotic NYC right in front of you and yet you will be far from it. World war monument has some historical references carved on it. Take a moment to Tell your kids about a piece of...
Read moreFar too little thought and reverence is given to those that fought in WWI, and the monuments to often have a lack of visitors. I think this one is well trafficked because of its location and view. I arrived one day in early summer via inflatable paddle board from across the way in Manhattan. Started at my home port of Manhattan Kayak and SUP, Pier 84, next to Intrepid. Crossed the river, took out at a little beach that forms at low tide near Molos beside the apartment complex at Regency Place. I suppose it is easier for most NJ folks via a...
