The #seeJC marketing campaign is an initiative by Jersey City to promote tourism and economic growth in the city. The campaign encourages locals and visitors to share photos and experiences on social media using the hashtag #seeJC to showcase the city's unique attractions, culture, and diverse community.

The campaign highlights various aspects of Jersey City, including its arts scene, parks, restaurants, and waterfront. Through #seeJC, the city hopes to increase awareness and interest in Jersey City as a destination and foster community pride.

According to NJ.com, the campaign is an effort to draw people to New Jersey’s second largest city’s “800 new places to eat, shop, and drink.”

City spokeswoman Kimberly Wallace-Scalcione told NJ.com,

Given the extraordinary growth Jersey City has experienced over the past decade, the Fulop administration remains committed to supporting our local establishments by attracting tourists to our small businesses, renowned restaurants, music and entertainment venues, arts and culture scene, and everything in between.

Jersey City is home to many art galleries, restaurants, and cultural attractions, including Liberty State Park, the Jersey City Museum, and the historic landmark of the Colgate Clock. The city has also experienced significant redevelopment in recent years, with the construction of new high-rise buildings, parks, and waterfront developments.

A big part of the marketing push is sell Jersey City as “the most livable place in NJ.”
