Weehawken is located in Hudson County directly across the Hudson River from New York City. The town offers breathtaking views of the entire Hudson River basin and Midtown Manhattan. Although small in size and population (as of the 2000 census the population was 13,501,) the town of Weehawken is very cosmopolitan. It is situated along the western shore of the river and along the southern end of the New Jersey Palisades. Weehawken is also the location of the western terminus of the Lincoln Tunnel. The New York Harbor Ferry arrives and departs from the Lincoln Harbor Ferry Terminal located on Lincoln Boulevard in Weehawken. Boulevard East is a scenic street in Weehawken that runs along the eastern cliff of The Palisades. With Hamilton Park along the east shoulder of the road, it offers a sweeping vista of the Hudson River and the Manhattan skyline. This famous backdrop is frequently used as the setting for wedding photographs, etc. Many grand homes and mansions, some from the Victorian era, are located along this boulevard. Weehawken is also the site of an infamous duel in 1804 between Alexander Hamilton and Arron Burr. Hamilton was fatally wounded, and the rock on which his head landed is on display with a monument and a plaque.

Weehawken Weather & Climate

Manhattan and the surrounding area have four seasons of changeable weather. Summers are often hot and muggy and last until September. Temperatures usually soar to near 100 degrees F. for a week to ten days in mid-July to mid-August. Another uncomfortable time to visit New York City is during January and February when temps are often in the 20s and the concrete canyons of the city can turn into wind tunnels. Otherwise, the rest of the year the weather is comfortable, with March usually being the rainiest month. May offers great weather - just warm enough for walking around but cool enough to remain comfortable. Autumn has more sunshine than spring, although both are clear and bright. New York City is magical at Christmas time and the changing leaves of fall makes it a beautiful time to visit the area.
