Derelict buildings and brownfields soon began to dominate the surrounding landscape, which lies in the shadow of landmarks like Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. But preservationists persisted and spearheaded the park’s creation, managing to get the Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal listed on National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
