Boonton is a community rich in history.  At one time, Boonton was home to one of the most important stops in NJ for the Underground Railroad. Trolley cars ran through Main street and the town thrived. Fast forward to today, the diverse residents  can enjoy the action on Main street by shopping at its cute boutiques, wonderful antique shops and a wide range of restaurants and small fitness studios.

 

One of the best kept secrets in Boonton is the beautiful Boonton Falls. Grace Lord Park with its iconic gazebo is the home to summer festivals, concerts and community gatherings.  Living in Boonton offers residents a suburban feel and most residents own their homes.
