City - Montclair

Nestled in the foothills of First Watchung Mountain, Montclair’s natural surroundings don’t (more like, can’t) go unnoticed by anyone. Mills Reservation County Park and Eagle Rock Preservation afford residents and visitors alike miles of hiking trails to explore and panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline.

This small town is more than a small town – it’s an artistic community! Art galleries, museums, and entertainment venues are found in Montclair’s downtown area along Bloomfield Avenue. The Wellmont Theater is the city’s go-to spot for comedic relief and concerts.

In walking distance of Montclair apartments, you’ll discover a plethora of international fare, a vibrant art scene, bakeries, boutiques, and bars. Residents highly enjoy living in a commuter city with convenient access to railroads and freeways. About seven NJ Transit Rail stations make up this community, with the Montclair-Boonton Line destination being NY Penn Station.
