dc.descriptionThe extension of the Morris Canal into Jersey City at Little Basin from Newark was completed in 1836. As the canal's eastern terminus, it linked Jersey City to the anthracite coal, or "black gold" fields, of northeastern Pennsylvania that arrived on flat-bottomed boats for the city's industrial development. Today the Morris runs through the northern end of Liberty State Park. It is a recreational pathway for pedestrians and bicyclists along the former route as well as access to New York Harbor for the many private yachts and boats docked at the marinas along the Hudson River.
