Route 185 is a short expressway in Jersey City in the U.S. state of New Jersey, between Route 440 and Linden Avenue. Route 185 is a 0.65-mile (1.05 km) freeway in the Greenville neighborhood of Jersey City. It is parallel to Interstate 78 (the Newark Bay Extension of the New Jersey Turnpike) on the eastern side. On Route 440, signs pointing the way to Route 185 imply that the highway runs directly to Liberty State Park. In reality, the freeway ends at Linden Avenue, and travelers must journey one city block west to Caven Point Road, which continues north to Liberty State Park. Route 185 opened on February 25, 1988, at only 23% of its proposed routing.
