You are warmly invited to join the community for this year’s annual Hilal sighting, a cherished tradition marking the new moon. For the best experience, we recommend several premier locations. The Jersey City Waterfront (Exchange Place) offers beautiful, unobstructed views across the Hudson River toward the clear western horizon. If you are traveling with a large group, Liberty State Park provides expansive open fields, easy access, and ample parking. For a truly unique and modern vantage point, experience the sighting from The Edge at Hudson Yards, where its 100th-floor outdoor deck places you high above the city’s atmospheric haze for maximum clarity.
