Maritime Parc reopens March 12
Waterfront restaurant Maritime Parc is reopening this Friday, March 12. Located at 84 Audrey Zapp Drive, Maritime Parc is a modern seafood restaurant serving local and sustainable dishes. The restaurant, which is situated along the Liberty Landing Marina, is also known for its panoramic views of New York City. Back in December, the restaurant made headlines after hosting the New York Young Republican’s annual gala. The restaurant was ordered to close by Mayor Steven Fulop, although restaurant officials claim the event didn’t exceed capacity limitations and that New Jersey State Police were onsite the entire time. They’re offering limited indoor dining and Jersey City outdoor dining via their patio.
