Colonial landmarks, contemporary living Click here for New Providence Listings
Although New Providence was first settled in 1720, its real development did not begin until the 1950’s. While a number of historic structures remain, the borough is characterized by sheltered cul-de-sacs, spacious lawns and homes built for the active, modern family. Recreational programs and facilities are plentiful and the public schools are the community’s pride. A lively village center offers a mix of retail shops, personal services and a diverse choice of restaurants. New York City is an easy commute via bus or by rail.
