Esteemed Jersey City historian and community advocate Jerome Choice led our free Lafayette Neighborhood Black Heritage Trail Walking Tour on Saturday, May 30, 2026, leading nearly 40 participants through the quiet streets and lanes of the 400-year-old Lafayette neighborhood and highlighting buildings and places important specifically to Black history.
