New Jersey is the first level in Tony Hawk's Underground and is the protagonist's hometown.

Origin[]

It is based on the real-world location of Trenton, New Jersey.

Places of Interest[]

New Jersey Train Station[]

In the story mode of Tony Hawk's Underground, the New Jersey Train Station is used by the Custom Skater and Eric Sparrow to escape from the drug dealers on Elm Street. The train station is the main hint that the New Jersey level is based on Trenton, since it contains a stop for "Septic", which mocks a SEPTA train that runs between Trenton, NJ and Philadelphia, PA in real life.

Elm Street[]

In the story mode of Tony Hawk's Underground, Elm Street is described by the Custom Skater as a street full of drug dealers that hate skateboarders.

Peralta's[]

In the story mode of Tony Hawk's Underground, "Peralta's", the local skateboarding shop in New Jersey, is owned by Stacy Peralta. The Custom Skater becomes sponsored by the shop. Opposite "Peralta's" is The Playground, where the Custom Skater must complete several goals including executing the Soul Skatin' in the area.

Easter Eggs[]

  • The secret tape can be found underneath the bridge.
  • If you skate on the rails at the train station, the lady on the intercom reacts to you as so.
  • In the Custom Skater's bedroom, a poster of Daisy from Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 can be seen on the wall.

Trivia[]

  • In Tony Hawk's Underground 2, New Jersey appears in the first cutscene of the game's story mode. The level is not a playable level in the game but is still reachable through glitching the Training level in Tony Hawk's Underground 2 (and Remix) and by modding the PC version of Tony Hawk's Underground 2. New Jersey is not fully programmed or developed in Tony Hawk's Underground 2 (Remix) or the PC version of Tony Hawk's Underground 2, so most of the level is missing and none of the rails or ledges in the level can be grinded.
  • According to screenshots, the Muscle car was originally supposed to be driveable here, but was cut for unknown reasons.
  • The Russian car was supposed to spawn here in traffic, but was probably cut due to the fact that Lada's aren't available in the United States.
