Welcome to Historic Hamilton Park, Jersey City, NJ

People who come to Hamilton Park are struck by its timeless ambiance, an ambiance that has earned it an honored position in the National Register of Historic Places. Today, the Hamilton Park section of Jersey City is one of the most desirable addresses on the Hudson County “Gold Coast,” with its open green spaces, ancient elms and wrought iron fences. This is the backdrop for all who make the Atrium assisted living residence at Hamilton Park their new home.

The new Hamilton Park Health Care Center and Atrium complex, downtown at Ninth Street and Jersey Avenue, is located on the edge of historic Hamilton Park, a peaceful refuge of trees, benches and paths surrounded by gorgeous 19th century brownstone and limestone buildings.

At the green's center is an impressive gazebo. At times the Park is the site of outdoor Shakespearean performances, Farmer's Markets, Easter Egg Hunts, May Plant Sales and Fall Bulb Planting. The local shops offer a variety of ethnic foods. An active neighborhood society keeps a protective eye over the square and the diverse neighborhood, where people have known each other's families for generations.

To the nearby south, on the Hudson Riverfront, is the sprawling Liberty State Park, with breathtaking views of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty along its 4-mile walkway. To the west is the Lincoln State Park. The Jersey City Free Public Library offers endless pursuits for the mind.

Jersey City is an 8-minute subway ride from lower Manhattan. A ferry service now runs and is well served by bus routes.
