Skyway Golf Course at Lincoln Park West

Skyway Golf Course at Lincoln Park West offers a compact, spirited urban golfing experience born from the optimism of Jersey City’s post-industrial revival. This nine-hole layout, hugging the western edge of the park, is a product of contemporary design adapting to a unique cityscape. While no championship banners fly here, and no famed architects have left their mark, Skyway’s strength lies in its accessibility and community engagement. The course favors players who can deftly manage shorter distances and strategically navigate tight, tree-lined fairways. Precise iron play is rewarded; wayward drives are quickly penalized by the surrounding parkland. The membership mirrors the diverse and energetic spirit of Jersey City itself. From seasoned players seeking a quick round to newcomers discovering the game, Skyway fosters a welcoming atmosphere. Following a late afternoon round, many members gather at nearby eateries, celebrating both birdies and the camaraderie the course cultivates.
