State Highways of New Jersey



SR 505 is, for much of its length, one of the oldest roads in Bergen County. After a start in Union City, at the corner of the Boulevard and 37th/38th streets, it passes the site of the 1804 duel between Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr in Weehawken, and then descends the hill to become River Road in Edgewater. Just north of NJ 5, it passes “Vriesendael”, the site of one of the first European settlements in today’s Bergen County. Then it re-ascends the hill and makes its way a few miles inland before continuing northward as Knickerbocker Road. North of the New York state line, it becomes NY 303, which until recently was known as Vriesendael Road.
