Cruise from Bayonne, New Jersey
The New
York- New Jersey Port. Throughout the 19th century, New York and
New Jersey waged many disputes over their valuable, shared
harbor and waterways. A dispute over the boundary line through
the harbor and the Hudson River - settled by the Treaty of 1834
- once led state police to exchange shots in the middle of the
river. The impasse eased when the two states agreed that the
port area was, in effect, one community and that conflict
squandered the port's potential. The states sought a
governmental body to oversee port affairs and found a model in
the Port of London, administered by what was then the only
public authority in the world.
On April 30, 1921, The Port of New York Authority was
established to administer the common harbor interests of New
York and New Jersey. The first of its kind in the Western
Hemisphere, the organization was created under a clause of the
Constitution permitting Compacts between states, with
Congressional consent. An area of jurisdiction called the "Port
District," a bistate region of about 1,500 square miles centered
on the Statue of Liberty, was established. In 1972, the
organization's name was changed to The Port Authority of New
York and New Jersey to more accurately identify our role as a
bistate agency.
