Paulus Hook / Exchange Place
The Colgate Clock and the waterfront walkway
Outside

A fifty-foot octagonal clock face standing on its own at the foot of Essex Street, left behind when Colgate pulled its soap works out of Jersey City in 1985 after a hundred and forty-one years. The Hudson River Waterfront Walkway runs past it on a paved path, with lower Manhattan across the water. The clock was put up in 1924 and moved to this spot when the factory came down.

Open at all hours. Lit after dark
