So much of the state has access to major roadways and public transportation, as well as strong borough infrastructures. Northern New Jersey is particularly healthy because people want access to a metropolitan, cosmopolitan lifestyle. AvalonBay's The Towers at Avalon Cove began leasing its 296 apartments in March and currently boasts lease occupancies of more than 90 percent. Adding to the community's appeal is the fact that Jersey City has taken great strides to revitalize the area, not just as a suburb of Manhattan, but as a riverfront community with a presence of it own. Residents also have access to neighboring Avalon Cove's tennis, racquetball and basketball courts.
Some units also feature private gardens and balconies.
The Landings at Port Imperial, developed by Roseland Property Co., is another apartment rental property with a phenomenal success rate along the Hudson riverfront. Brenda Cordova, regional property manager for Roseland Property, attributes the community's success to its incredible Hudson River views and spacious, well-designed floor plans. Complementing the exterior landscape is a phenomenal swimming pool and boardwalk located along the river's edge. Each of the 276 apartments at The Landings includes a long list of desirable amenities, such as tiled bathrooms, vaulted ceilings, balcony and loft options, fireplaces, central air and individually controlled gas heat, as well as a washer and dryer, four telephone lines and high-speed Internet access. New Jersey's Gold Coast isn't the only hot spot for apartment rentals, however.
