Harsimusとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Harsimus (also known as Harsimus Cove) is a neighborhood within Downtown Jersey City. The neighborhood stretches from the Harsimus Stem Embankment (the Sixth Street Embankment) in the north to Christopher Columbus Drive in the south between Coles Street and Grove Street or more broadly, to Marin Boulevard. It borders the neighborhoods of Hamilton Park to the north, Van Vorst Park to the south, the Village to the west, and the Powerhouse Arts District to the east. Newark Avenue has traditionally been its main street. The name is from the Lenape, used by the Hackensack Indians who inhabited the region and could be translated as Crow’s Marsh. From many years, the neighborhood was part of the “Horseshoe”, a political delineation created by its position between the converging rail lines and political gerrymandering [1].
