    Beyond the beach, a vibrant tapestry of amenities awaits featuring multiple playgrounds, a playport with water features, a seasonal carousel, and much more. As the sun sets, the park transforms into a hub of community activity, with residents gathering for outdoor movie screenings under the stars, live concerts, and beach festivals.

  • Scenic Riverside Escapes

    Beyond its breathtaking views, the 1.2 mile Waterfront Walkway is perfect for biking, jogging, or walking along the Hudson River.

  • A Community Where Creativity Flourishes

    Jersey City’s art scene is an inspiring collection of local artists where the excitement of creativity is alive, supported, and thriving.

    Newport’s latest public installation, the monumental Water’s Soul, was created by the world-renowned artist, Jaume Plensa, specifically for Newport. Looking across the Hudson River, Water’s Soul acknowledges the surrounding waterfronts and provides a powerful art experience for
    residents and visitors of Newport.

    Bisby recognizes and continues to support the local art community by commissioning exclusive works to be showcased in select amenities spaces, as well as a permanent kinetic art installation.
