- Weehawken Street (Manhattan)
Weehawken Street is a short street located in the borough of Manhattan in New York City's Greenwich Village, one block from the Hudson River, between Christopher Street and West 10th Street. During the colonial era it was the site of a ferry landing and market where fresh produce was brought to Manhattan from farms across the river.
