North River is an alternative name for the southernmost portion of the Hudson River in the vicinity of New York City and northeastern New Jersey. 'North River Front' refers to the watercourse flowing between Lower Manhattan and Hudson County, New Jersey. Its history is strongly connected to the shipping industry in the Port of New York and New Jersey, which shifted primarily to Port Newark in the mid-20th century due to the construction of the Holland Tunnel and other river crossings and the advent of containerization. More recently, much of the shoreline previously used for maritime, rail, and industrial activities has given way to recreational promenades and piers. On the Hudson Waterfront in New Jersey, the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway runs for about 18 miles. In Manhattan, the Hudson River Park runs from Battery Park to 59th Street.
