The Beacon in the center of Jersey City has a rich history as the Art Deco site of the former Jersey City Medical Center, built by infamous Frank “I Am the Law” Hague in the Great Depression.
The Baldwin Avenue complex, now luxury rental apartments, also happens to be uniquely situated to have had a view of last night’s Macy’s fireworks show on the East River and Jersey City’s fireworks show in Liberty State Park.
Management extended an invitation to The Jersey Journal to have a photographer rooftop at “The Tower” building last night. Here are scenes by Michael Dempsey.

Wow! I was wondering what the view from the Beacon would be like for this. Thanks for sharing. I just moved to Jersey City and am checking out your posts – love the stuff! I hope to blog about getting to know JC on my site as well!
