New Jersey State Highway 7 is a state highway in New Jersey, United States. It has two sections.
Section 1 runs from the U.S. 1 and U.S. 9 Truck routes in Jersey City, an intersection commonly known as the Charlotte Circle, to the line between Kearny and Belleville at the Passaic River. This stretch of road is known as the Belleville Turnpike.
Section 2 runs from the border between Newark and Belleville at the Second River to the border between Essex and Passaic counties in Nutley. This section uses Washington Avenue in Belleville, Nutley, and Clifton, Kingsland Road in Clifton, Kingsland Street and Cathedral Avenue in Nutley, and the section ends less than one-half mile from New Jersey State Highway 3. Prior to the 1950s, NJ 7 was signed south to Newark and north to Paterson along Section 2.
Rutgers Street in Belleville, named for Col. Henry Rutgers, is used to connect the two sections. It is signed as part of NJ 7, but it is officially part of Essex County Route 506. Section 2 of NJ 7 is not signed between the Second River and Rutgers Street except on overhead signs suspended from traffic signals.
NewJerseyStateHighway 24 is a statehighway in NewJersey, United States.
In 1974, that route was split into NewJerseyStateHighway 57 at Hackettstown, and the rest from the Musconetcong River eastward still known as 24.
It was finally completed through to the intersection with Interstate 287 in Hanover Township, NewJersey in the mid-1990s, and at that time the 24 designation was limited to strictly that freeway.
It is bounded by Lake Ontario, the St. Lawrence River, and the Dominion of Canada on the north; by Vermont, Massachusetts, and Connecticut on the east; by Pennsylvania, NewJersey, and the Atlantic Ocean on the south, and by Pennsylvania, Lake Erie, and the Niagara River on the west.
The ice-free and deep-channelled port of New York, lying at the mouth of the Hudson River, with its wide roadsteads and anchorages and vast transportation facilities is indeed the greatest property of the State of New York.
The population of the State of New York itself increased from 340,120 in 1790 to 1,918,608 in 1830.
