Description of Allendale,
NJ - |
| Located in Bergen
County, NJ, the distinction of Allendale is its likeness to a New England "small
town" in the traditional character of its homes and the pride of ownership evident on
every street. There is a versatility in its architectural variety and among its
residents that is expressed in a wide range of housing and social organizations for all
ages, recreation and school activities. This picturesque community boasts 70-acre
Crestwood
Park, a
recreational area with a 9-acre sand bottom swimming lake, sandy breaches, pine grove,
ballfield and a wooded wonderland for nature lovers. Another unusual recreational
facility is the 100+ acre "celery farm" which is a protected nature preserve
with a glacial lake and wonderful walking paths. Its highly rated schools are
centrally located and within easy reach of all in this compact 2.8 square mile
community. Northern Highland Regional High School, with its 50-acre campus adjacent
to Crestwood Park, serves as an active cultural and community center.
Allendale offers a charming center of
town shopping area as well as a
train
station
for easy commute to New York City. Bus lines are also available. |
