The cove's marine life is exposed to dioxins, mercury and other toxins from industrial source point pollution. There is a New Jersey State Department of Environmental Protection fish/shellfish/blue claw crab warning on all fishing. Fisherpersons are encouraged to catch and release all fish and marine life.[5]
In December 2021, John's Cove was designated as a "Living Shoreline - A Vital Avian, Marine and Animal Ecosystem" to highlight its importance and the city's commitment to its preservation.[6]
Namingedit
John's Cove was named after Dr. John Dobosiewicz by resolution from the Elizabeth City Council on September 10, 2013, shortly after his death. He was the executive director of the School of General Studies at Kean University and co-founder of the Elizabeth River/Arthur Kill Watershed Association. He was heavily involved in projects that took place on the Elizabeth waterfront.[7][8][9]

Elizabeth River: Adjacent to a major shipping channel, the New Jersey side of the Arthur Kill and Elizabeth River is highly residential, with industrial operations occurring primarily at the mouth of the river and along the Arthur Kill. There are two waterfront public spaces providing larger stretches of contiguous access - the Elizabeth River Parkway and the Arthur Kill Blueway. The primary gaps in this area are between Parker Road and South Broad Street and adjacent to the Norfolk Southern rail terminal.
