Neighborhoods

Bergen Lafayette borders massive Liberty State Park and is accessible via the Light Rail, bus or Citi Bike. The neighborhood is rapidly developing but still retains a quiet, family-friendly vibe. Restaurants, bodegas and our neighborhood bar (Harry's Daughter) can all be found running the length of Communipaw Avenue, just steps from the AirBNB.
