It is the section of the city closest to the Bayonne Bridge.[3] Historically the term has been used more broadly as synonymous with Constable Hook, from which it is geographically separated at Port Johnson. The area was connected to Staten Island with a ferry as early as the late 17th century, and was later developed as a resort.[4][5] In the late 18th century it become more prominent as a ferry landing for travellers between New York City and Philadelphia.[6] The Bergen Point Lighthouse, built offshore in 1849, was demolished and replaced with a skeletal tower in the mid 20th century.[7] A charter was granted for the construction of The Jersey City and Bergen Point Plank Road in 1851.[8] Governor of New Jersey Jon Corzine announced on May 6, 2006, that funding was in place to extend the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail system to Eighth Street. Work was completed and the station opened in January 2011.[9]A large portion of the point was once site of a Texaco plant, which was cleared and is slated to become a residential and recreational area along Newark Bay and Kill Van Kull.[10] GallerySee also
