Historic brownstones with stoops stand in a line across from the courthouse. Not far away, green space adorns the scenic Delaware River. This is Downtown Trenton -- the heart of New Jersey government and the city's vibrant center for art and culture, food and shopping, history and museums, and so much more. The neighborhood's history dates back to 1679, when Quakers moved into the region. In 1719, the town was named for a merchant, William Trent, who became one of the city's most affluent and influential citizens. Learn more about "Tent's Towne" by visiting the 1719 William Trent House Museum, located at the intersection of Market Street and Wm Trent.
By choosing a Downtown Trenton apartment, you'll enjoy living in a very walkable community filled with restaurants, shops, landmarks and historic sites, museums, and parks. You'll be at the busy heart of a dynamic city with access to mass transit (take the train from Trenton Station to either Manhattan or Philadelphia in about an hour). Some of Downtown Trenton's other landmarks include the Old Barracks, which date back to 1758, and Trenton City Hall, built in 1907.
