About the Business
Welcome to the Tear Drop Memorial, a poignant and breathtaking tourist attraction located at 51 Port Terminal Boulevard, Bayonne, New Jersey. This striking monument, officially named "To the Struggle Against World Terrorism," was a heartfelt gift from the Russian government to the American people, symbolizing solidarity and the shared grief over the tragic events of September 11, 2001.
Standing at an impressive 100 feet tall, the Tear Drop Memorial features a large, open crack running through a towering stone monolith, from which a massive steel teardrop is suspended. This powerful imagery evokes a sense of loss and remembrance, offering a space for reflection and contemplation.
Situated along the serene waterfront with stunning views of the New York City skyline, the memorial provides a peaceful environment to honor the memories of those who were lost and to consider the ongoing quest for peace and unity in the world.
Visitors can stroll around the site, take in the detailed inscriptions, and enjoy the thoughtfully landscaped surroundings. Whether you're a local resident or a traveler exploring New Jersey, the Tear Drop Memorial is a must-visit destination that offers both a moving tribute and a unique piece of international art.
Plan your visit today to experience this profound symbol of hope and resilience.
Reviews
"Memorial structure is astonishing. Nyc Views are great, also get to see some of those cruise boats when anchored in. No restrooms is a bummer."
"It's a lot bigger than you might think. Like 30 meters tall and very impressive. Looks more like other things rather than a tear. You will be standing right next to giant cruise ship and gargantuan commercial ship. They dock right next to the memorial."
"Very intense place. Beautiful view. And port for cruise"
"Lovely space tucked (hidden) away on the water. It's difficult to know this place exists unless you look at Google (Apple) maps and stumble upon it. You will have to drive past a residential section and then a large shipping area and finally the cruise port before getting to this place. It has a large parking lot and was very quiet and empty when I visited at about 5:30pm on a Wednesday. The park has some benches and is very well-maintained. There were a few people there fishing by the waterline as well. The highlight of the park of course if the tear drop memorial...which is massive and beautiful. It was a gift from Russia in 2006 following the 1993 and 2001 WTC attacks. There is some interesting information about the monument, its history and construction on the official website. I suggest you take a quick look before going. There was one port-a-potty there but not the cleanest place to "go" as most port-a-pottys are."
