The map
About this Union City map poster
Union City sits on the ridge of the Palisades in Hudson County, New Jersey, directly across the Hudson River from Midtown Manhattan. From above, it is a tight, regular grid of narrow blocks. There is almost no open space, and houses and apartment buildings stand close together on nearly every lot. The cliffs to the east form a sharp edge, and the river lies just beyond.
Union City is often described as the most densely populated city in the United States. Its main commercial street, Bergenline Avenue, runs north to south through the middle of town. The city became home to a large Cuban community in the second half of the twentieth century, which earned it the nickname Havana on the Hudson.
A Union City map poster shows that density clearly. The grid runs almost edge to edge, and Bergenline Avenue is its long central line. Manhattan's streets appear across the water, which puts the city in context and makes the composition work well.

The Palisades edge
The ridge drops steeply toward the Hudson on the eastern side of town. The street grid stops at the cliffs, giving the map a hard edge.
Dense grid
Narrow blocks and closely packed streets cover almost the whole city. There are very few gaps, which makes the map unusually dark and detailed.

Why Union City
A map that means something
Union City means a lot to families with Cuban and Latin American roots, and to anyone who has lived in a Palisades apartment with a view of Manhattan. The dense grid makes a strong, graphic print.
