Weehawken Terminal

Weehawken Terminal

Weehawken Terminal was the waterfront railroad terminal on the Hudson River in Weehawken, New Jersey for the New York Central Railroad's passenger trains and car floats, as well as ferry boats. It opened in 1884 and closed in 1959. However in recent years, it has been replaced with new passenger ferry boat terminals owned by New York Waterway.
