A first date idea
Liberty State Park and the waterfront walkway
Liberty State Park covers 1,212 acres, and the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway runs along it past views of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. The state's waterfront route then heads north past the Morris Canal Big Basin and into downtown. Walk part of it, then get dinner near Grove Street.
