New Brunswick. Transit Friendly Urban Neighborhood.

A wave of new residential development, spurred by projects like the HELIX (see New Brunswick’s Transit Village: The HELIX in Focus), highlights the city’s transit access on the Northeast Corridor and builds on years of planning efforts. Designated a New Jersey Transit Village in 2005, New Brunswick exemplifies a Transit Friendly Urban Neighborhood.
