In the middle of Jersey City and cops have had mixed feelings about climbing on the wall. some think it is cool and others will tell you to get off.

Description

very unique because of its location in the middle of downtown jersey city. rock is literally stone blocks built into a 25 foot vertical wall. blocks a are varied and irregular creating crimps, 2 finger sloping pockets, cracks (where grout has fallen out) and large slopers. rock quality ranges from high quality granite blocks (primarily on Coles, Mommouth and Jersey ave) to chossy sandstone with incredible sticky pockets. routes, as of now are all bouldering traverses though they can stretch for upwards of 50ft. Be prepared for strange looks from people
