Droyer's Point

To the north, Kellog Street creates its boundary with the brownfield and site of Bayfront,[1] a planned urban development project.

At its southern end is the Athletic Complex of New Jersey City University – its other locations are further inland on the West Side.

In the 1920s the land which was owned by the city became the object of development which included land reclamation and the construction of bulkhead, with the intention of expanding the city's port facilities south of the CRRNJ Newark and New York Branch (which traveled from Downtown Newark across the river and Bergen Hill to Communipaw Terminal).

While the planned distribution facilities never materialized, the area did become the site of the short lived Jersey City Airport, which opened in 1927.

[11] For a short time the airport was operated by Eddie August Schneider, a native of the city and one of early aviation's youthful celebrities.

[12][13] After the end of World War Two, Jersey Skyports was founded by three former Naval aviators, Edward Selig Binder, John Barteluse, and Bill Christie, and operated for five years.

[16] Rain washed out the planned events and the opening was postponed until April 23 with Mayor Hague throwing out the first pitch and Sen. Moore and owner Horace Stoneham on hand for the ballpark's dedication.

In 1950, Sugar Ray Robinson defended his welterweight title; in 1951, Jersey Joe Walcott beat heavyweight champion Ezzard Charles.

During the 1970s the stadium was used every summer as a major concert venue with performances by the Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers Band, Beach Boys, Eric Clapton, Tony Bennett, and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, among others.
