Lincoln Harbor station

Lincoln Harbor serves as a stop on the Hudson–Bergen Light Rail (HBLR), situated along Waterfront Terrace just north of 19th Street in Weehawken, New Jersey. This station, which commenced operations on September 7, 2004, consists of two tracks flanking an island platform.

Approximately a five-minute walk to the southeast, at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and 19th Street, lies the Lincoln Harbor ferry terminal. From this location, NY Waterway provides commuter ferry services to the West Midtown Ferry Terminal in Manhattan.

In 2022, Lincoln Harbor recorded an average weekday boarding figure of 508 passengers, marking it as the least frequented stop within the Hudson–Bergen Light Rail network.

Name and vicinity

The designation of the station reflects its position along the Hudson Waterfront, bordered by the Hudson River to the east and the Lincoln Tunnel to the west. It is positioned beneath the descending structure of the Lincoln Tunnel Helix, leading down to the art deco styled toll plaza and tunnel portals. To its east lies a mixed-use commercial and residential area that underwent partial redevelopment by Hartz Mountain Industries, which acquired the former Erie Railroad yards located north of Weehawken Cove in 1981. In 2011, Hartz Mountain announced plans for further residential construction consisting of three rental apartment buildings adjacent to the station, which opened in 2013. The historic Erie Pier D and Piershed—survivors from the rail era and listed on the New Jersey Register of Historic Places—have been repurposed into office facilities. While much of the rail line runs at ground level, a bridge just north of Lincoln Harbor allows trains to cross over a busy junction at King's Bluff.

To the northeast are Weehawken Recreation Park and Weehawken Port Imperial. The Hudson River Waterfront Walkway runs alongside the river, offering access to marinas and ferry connections operated by New York Waterway to the West Midtown Ferry Terminal. Nearby corporate offices include those of UBS, Swatch Group USA, Hartz Mountain, and Telx (a colocation center). The vicinity also accommodates a Sheraton Hotel.
