Sejarah
Nama
Nama Weehawken umumnya dianggap telah berkembang daripada bahasa Algongkwi Lenape yang dituturkan oleh Hackensack dan Tappan. Ia telah ditafsirkan dengan pelbagai cara sebagai "tanah jagung", "tempat burung camar", "batu yang kelihatan seperti pokok", yang merujuk kepada Palisades, di atasnya kebanyakan bandar itu terletak, atau "di penghujung", antara lain dicadangkan. terjemahan.Weehawken, Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships. Accessed June 13, 2007. "A township in Hudson County, N.J., seven miles northeast of Jersey City. The name was originally an Algonquin Indian term and later changed by folk-usage to a pseudo-Dutch form. Its exact meaning is unclear, but variously translated as place of gulls, rocks that look like trees, maize land, at the end (of the Palisades) and field lying along the Hudson."Hutchinson, Viola L.

 Sejarah penubuhan 
Sejarah bertulis perbandaran itu bermula pada tahun 1609, apabila Henry Hudson, dalam pelayaran ketiganya ke Dunia Baru, belayar menyusuri apa yang kemudiannya dinamakan Sungai Utara pada Half Moon dan menimbang sauh di Weehawken Cove."Hoboken's earliest days: Before becoming a city, 'Hobuck' went through several incarnations", The Hudson Reporter, January 16, 2005. Accessed July 7, 2016. "On October 2, 1609, Henry Hudson anchored his ship, the Half Moon, in what is now Weehawken Cove. Robert Juet, Hudson's first mate, wrote in the ship's log, "[W]e saw a good piece of ground ... that looked of the color of white green." The rock of which Juet wrote makes up Castle Point in Hoboken; nowhere else along the Hudson River exists a white-green rock formation." Pada masa itu ia adalah wilayah Hackensack dan Tappan, Klan Penyu, atau Unami, cabang Lenape. Mereka telah dipindahkan oleh pendatang ke wilayah New Netherland, yang telah mula menyelesaikan tebing barat Hudson di Pavonia pada tahun 1630. Pada 11 Mei 1647, Maryn Adriansen menerima paten untuk ladang (169 ekar) di Awiehaken. Pada tahun 1658, Ketua Pengarah New Netherland Peter Stuyvesant telah merundingkan perjanjian dengan Lenape untuk membeli semua tanah dari "batu besar di atas Wiehacken", barat ke Sikakes (Secaucus) dan selatan ke Konstapels Hoeck (Constable Hook). History of the County of Hudson, New Jersey, from Its Earliest Settlement to the Present Time, p. 62. Accessed March 29, 2007. Pada tahun 1661, Weehawken menjadi sebahagian daripada Bergen apabila ia (dan kebanyakan timur laut New Jersey) berada di bawah bidang kuasa mahkamah di Dataran Bergen.

Pada tahun 1674, New Netherland telah diserahkan kepada Belanda oleh British, dan bandar itu menjadi sebahagian daripada Wilayah Jersey Timur. Pada tahun 1677, John Luby memperoleh beberapa bungkusan meliputi 35 ekar (14 he) di sepanjang Hudson. Kebanyakan kediaman adalah di sepanjang puncak tebing kerana kawasan rendah kebanyakannya adalah tanah paya. Penerangan dari tempoh itu bercakap tentang dedaunan dan hutan yang lebat dan tanah yang sangat baik untuk menanam sayur-sayuran dan buah-buahan dusun. Seawal 1700 ada perkhidmatan feri biasa, jika sporadis dari Weehawken. Pada tahun 1752, King George II membuat geran rasmi pertama untuk perkhidmatan feri, rumah feri di utara Hoboken yang digunakan terutamanya untuk hasil ladang, dan kemungkinan telah dijual di pendaratan Greenwich Village yang menjadi Weehawken Street.Van Valen, James M.  History of Bergen County, New Jersey, p. 86. New Jersey Publishing and Engraving Co., 1900. Accessed January 14, 2012. "For many years the farmers and others in the northern part of Bergen County reached New York by means of the Weehawken Ferry established by Samuel Bayard about the year 1700. The charter for this ferry was granted by George II in 1752 to Stephen Bayard."

Weehawken telah dibentuk sebagai sebuah perbandaran oleh akta Badan Perundangan New Jersey, pada 15 Mac 1859, dari bahagian Hoboken dan Bergen Utara. Sebahagian daripada perbandaran telah diserahkan kepada Hoboken pada tahun 1874. Wilayah tambahan telah dilampirkan pada tahun 1879 dari Hoboken Barat.Snyder, John P.

Perang Revolusi Amerika
Semasa Perang Revolusi Amerika, Weehawken digunakan sebagai pencari patriot untuk memeriksa British, yang terletak di New York dan mengawal laluan air di sekitarnya. Malah, pada Julai 1778, Lord Stirling meminta Aaron Burr, dalam sepucuk surat yang ditulis bagi pihak Jeneral George Washington, untuk menggaji beberapa orang untuk "pergi ke Bergen Heights, Weehawk, Hoebuck, atau mana-mana ketinggian lain di situ untuk memerhatikan usul perkapalan musuh" dan untuk mengumpulkan sebarang perisikan lain yang mungkin.Parton, James.

Tidak jauh dari Deas' terdapat tebing selebar 11 langkah dan panjang 20 langkah, terletak 20 kaki (6.1 m) di atas Hudson di Palisades. Tebing ini, yang telah lama berlalu, merupakan tapak 18 duel yang didokumenkan dan mungkin banyak yang tidak direkodkan pada tahun 1798–1845. Yang paling terkenal ialah pertarungan antara Alexander Hamilton, Setiausaha Perbendaharaan pertama, dan Aaron Burr, kemudian Naib Presiden Amerika Syarikat, yang berlaku pada 11 Julai 1804;Ellis, Joseph J. 2000.

"When Alexander Hamilton's 19-year-old son rose to his father's defense on November 20, 1801, he took the first step of a violent process that had become an American social convention – the duel.... The weapons chosen were pistols; the dueling site the heights of Weehawken, New Jersey, just across the Hudson from New York." (Sumber lain, bagaimanapun, meletakkan pertarungan di Paulus Hook di Jersey City.) Phillip, yang telah mempertahankan kehormatan bapanya, mengalami luka maut di pinggul dan lengan kirinya dan meninggal dunia dua hari kemudian pada 24 November 1801.

Pada pertengahan abad ke-19, James G. King membina ladangnya Highwood di atas tebing yang kini menyandang namanya, dan menghiburkan ramai tokoh politik dan seni era itu, termasuk Daniel Webster.Allocca, Sean. "Happy Birthday, Weehawken! Town unveils new book, year-long 150th celebration", The Hudson Reporter, February 8, 2009. Accessed January 14, 2012. "According to the book, Weehawken first gained momentum when James Gore King, a banking tycoon from New York City, moved his family to Weehawken in 1832. Naming his estate Highwood, these 50 acres served as the model for what Weehawken represented: exquisiteness, quiet communities, and astonishing scenery."

Dengan feri, Jalan Hackensack Plank (jalan tol yang merupakan arteri utama dari Weehawken ke Hackensack), dan kemudiannya, West Shore Railroad, dibina pada awal 1870-an, kawasan pantai menjadi hab pengangkutan. Orang kaya membina rumah di sepanjang puncak New Jersey Palisades, di mana mereka mungkin melarikan diri dari panas terik New York, dan menghirup udara segar dari ketinggian. Weehawken menjadi taman permainan orang kaya pada pertengahan hingga akhir abad ke-19. Satu siri lif gerabak, tangga, dan juga lif penumpang yang direka oleh jurutera yang sama seperti yang terdapat di Menara Eiffel (yang pada masa itu adalah yang terbesar di dunia) telah disediakan untuk menampung pelancong dan penghuni musim panas. Taman Hiburan Eldorado, sebuah taman keseronokan yang dibuka pada tahun 1891, menarik perhatian ramai orang.Staff. "A Substantial El Dorado; Weehawken's Counterpart Of The City Of Gold.

Monumen Hamilton
250px|left|thumb|Penanda sejarah kawasan pertarungan Weehawken, 2004.
Monumen Alexander Hamilton di Hamilton Avenue, bersebelahan Hamilton Park, adalah tapak peringatan kedua pertarungan Burr–Hamilton antara Alexander Hamilton dan Aaron Burr. Yang pertama, di tapak pertarungan asal, telah dibina pada tahun 1806 oleh Persatuan Saint Andrew, di mana Hamilton telah menjadi ahli. Sebuah cenotaph marmar sepanjang 14 kaki (4.3 m), yang terdiri daripada obelisk, di atasnya dengan tempayan yang menyala dan plak dengan petikan dari Horace, dikelilingi dengan pagar besi, dinaikkan di sekitar tempat Hamilton dipercayai jatuh.Willie. 2004. "The Changing Face of the Hamilton Monument" . Weehawken Historical Commission. pp. 3–4. Duel terus bertempur di tapak, dan marmar itu telah dirosakkan secara perlahan-lahan dan dikeluarkan untuk cenderahati, hilang sepenuhnya pada tahun 1820. Tablet itu muncul di kedai sampah dan menemui jalan ke Persatuan Sejarah New-York di Manhattan, di mana ia masih menetap.Demontreux, 2004, p. 4.

Dari 1820 hingga 1857, tapak itu ditandakan dengan dua batu, dengan nama Hamilton dan Burr, diletakkan di tempat yang mereka sangka berdiri semasa pertarungan. Apabila jalan dari Hoboken ke Fort Lee dibina melalui tapak itu pada tahun 1858, inskripsi di atas batu besar tempat Hamilton yang cedera parah dianggap telah berehat-salah satu daripada banyak kepingan grafiti yang ditinggalkan oleh pelawat-hanya yang tinggal. Tiada akaun utama pertarungan mengesahkan anekdot batu. Pada tahun 1870, landasan kereta api dibina terus melalui tapak, dan batu itu telah diangkut ke puncak Palisades, di mana ia kekal sehingga kini,Demontreux, 2004, p. 5. terletak tidak jauh dari Boulevard East.The Hamilton-Burr Duel The Historical Marker Database. Accessed August 1, 2010 Pada tahun 1894, pagar besi telah dibina di sekeliling batu, ditambah dengan patung Hamilton dan plak.

Plak itu telah dicuri oleh penceroboh pada tahun 1980-an, dan versi singkatan teks telah ditulis pada lekukan yang ditinggalkan di dalam batu, yang kekal sehingga awal 1990-an, apabila alas granit telah ditambah di hadapan batu, dan patung itu adalah dipindahkan ke bahagian atas alas. Penanda sejarah baharu telah ditambah pada 11 Julai 2004, ulang tahun ke-200 pertarungan itu.Demontreux, 2004, pp. 7–9."Monument, symposium honor 200th Bicentennial of duel lures scholars, officials", The Hudson Reporter, July 16, 2004.
