Happy 4th of July- Here's Where to Watch the Fireworks

According to NJ.COM, here's a list of some of the best places in and around Hoboken to watch the Macy's fireworks tonight:

Maxwell Place Park (Between 11th and 12th streets, on the waterfront) 
The newly opened 14th Street fishing pier

NY Waterway Tours 4th of July fireworks cruise (boards at 6 p.m. at Liberty Harbor on Marin Boulevard, $75).

WEEHAWKEN 

Lincoln Harbor Park (east of Port Imperial Boulevard), but it is restricted to Weehawken residents and officials say proof of residency will be required. 
Hamilton Park (Boulevard East and Duer Place) will be closed, but Boulevard East in front of the park will be a pedestrian mall, perfect for watching the show. North on Boulevard East, the Soldiers and Sailors monument area will be open. Town officials say don't bother with Weehawken Stadium and the new Waterfront Park, which will be closed the entire day. All neighborhood playgrounds will be closed at 4 p.m.
