With its historic brownstones, neighboring Manhattan, easy access to mass transit, and spectacular parks (this is the Garden City, after all), Downtown Jersey City is a highly sought-after destination for those looking for New York City area apartments. Imagine viewing the Manhattan skyline from the river … walking through a pedestrian-friendly neighborhood filled with shops and restaurants … massive skyscrapers … historic architecture … it's no wonder Jersey City is such a popular (and expensive!) destination. It is also one of the country's largest downtown business districts, earning it the nickname "Wall Street West." Downtown Jersey City is home to some fantastic events, including the Historic Downtown Farmers Market and the Best of Downtown Jersey City Food Tour. The Grove Street area is considered one of the trendiest in the region, offering up award-winning restaurants, chic nightclubs, and unique shops. After choosing a Downtown Jersey City apartment, have dinner on the roof deck at Skinner's Loft or head to Talde for Asian-Fusion cuisine.
