It was probably the street railways, the local transportation in Jersey City, that first needed to identify the location more precisely as Exchange Place.

{American railroad Journal Vol 32, June 18, 1859} Beginning with horsecars in 1860, the local network connected the ferry with neighborhoods in the city and nearby towns.

The continued use of the name "Exchange Place" was based on the Hudson and Manhattan station (PATH since 1962) and signs on the bus routes that had replaced the trolleys.

PATH service from Exchange Place runs east to the World Trade Center, north to Hoboken Terminal, and west to Journal Square and Newark Penn Station.

Three stations of the Hudson–Bergen Light Rail in the district are Harborside Financial Center, Essex Street and Exchange Place, where transfer to PATH and ferry are possible.
