99 Butler St

The Riverside neighborhood of Paterson sits near the Passaic River. Dense residential subdivisions fill this area, but locals also enjoy access to green spaces and nature along the rivers and in the parks scattered throughout the nearby areas. Roughly 22 miles from New York City, this community offers residents the chance to commute to the city in less than an hour, and locals don't have to travel far for fun either. The heart of the Riverside neighborhood centers around the intersections of 7th Avenue and 16th Street. There and in the blocks surrounding it, fun restaurants sit among taverns, sandwich shops, and sushi bars, appealing to foodies and anyone else craving a bite. Check out apartments for rent close to those streets if you like to have amenities within walking distance, but if you prefer to have nature within walking distance, look for rentals by the river.
