The Colgate Clock is an octagonal clock facing the Hudson river near exchange place in new jercy. It has a diameter of 50 feet (15 m). Very nice view of the city. Loved to be here, One who is interested in pictures come here to click best views.Me with my friends enjoyed here alot.

Cool clock. Nice to just stroll along the windy pier. People run along the pier all the time. Had a relaxing time walking. The view of the NY high rise is definitely the high point. Usually very clean.

Ive seen it dozens of times from a kayak or paddle board over the years and in all kinds of whether. A landmark unique to the NJ/NY waterfront.

Nice waterfront location and great walkway to enjoy your time and riverside view of New York City. But the gross area of the clock is not well maintained otherwise it’s very good location. We had spent some hours here and enjoyed it. The walkway is clean and very broad and very enjoyable.

The views of the NYC skyline are unmatched. Quiet area, good to walk the riverfront or sit and take in the sights and sounds of NYC. Very peaceful, safe, and amazing.

So bloody random. A lot of birds living here.Good view of New York... although not the only single location with these views ..How do I even rate this ginormous clock with zero additional value.

The clock itself is cool but the view and surrounding pier is what makes it a good spot! Many families with kids riding scooters and bikes. Couple good restaurants nearby!

Theres not that much to this, but it is cool to see the historic clock. Consider going around sundown to get some differently lit shots due to the back lighting. The area around the clock is nice to walk around and gives you some great shots of the New York City skyline across the Hudson River.

Perhaps one of the best site to see NYC from the other side of the Hudson River in New Jersey.Its almost impossible to find parking space for your vehicle. I will strongly recommend you to park in Liberty State Park and do some walking better yet if you like riding a bicycle is even betterDoing the trail by bicycle is the best way to goPlenty of restaurants and places to seeNote..If you sre planning to visit this place do it on the weekends....

The absolute highlight of my time in NYC. What an unbelievably iconic landmark; I was blessed to get the chance to see it. Hell, I would pay £500 for another flight to NYC just for the privilege of seeing this bad boy again.

One of the places which literally had my hair standing. The New York Skyline that you get to see from here is breathtaking. Again the place is totally free and easily accessible through public transport. You can just sit there or walk on the boardwalk or hangout with your friends. A dreamy place for me.

This place in New jersey on the hudson river bay is very good to hangout. Good for jogging and hanging out. There is a nice river front and a deck with ships going to and fro new york. Parking is somewhat tough to get. The place has variety of food restraunts and street food too and some ice creams stalls. I hope the ice cream van does not accept card payments but the street food vendors accept card payments too.
