waterfall

North Bergen is a community defined by its steep hills and elevated views of the Manhattan skyline rather than natural river cascades. While you will find scenic lakes and fountains in local spaces like James J. Braddock Park, there is no natural waterfall within the borders of North Bergen. The dramatic, heavy-duty waterfalls associated with the industrial history of this region are located further inland, where the rugged terrain of the New Jersey Highlands allowed early engineers to harness the power of the Passaic River.
