News & Announcements

It's only a few days left until our biggest event of the year, the 2nd Annual Afternoon of Fright on 4th Street. But to make it a truly successful community event, we need your help. Most of the activities are accounted for but volunteers are urgently needed with the following.

Remarks as given at during public comment portion of the Zoning Board of Adjustment meeting on August 23, 2011.

The Harsimus Cove Association wants to guarantee the highest and best use of 8 Erie Street for all of our residents. As bad as the City is in need of money, the purchase price of $4 million is hardly adequate or ‘fair market value.’ We must begin to think long-term and not throw away the opportunity to do what is right for our neighborhood—not just for today, but for the future.

Harsimus Cove Association is looking for a pro-bono graphic designer to help us develop a new visual identity. The project can be as big or small as you choose and you preferably live within the Harsimus Cove neighborhood or within Jersey City.

The City's new C3 Emergency Mass Alert System takes advantage of the latest technologies to reach residents and businesses with important messages regarding emergencies and public safety.
