New Monterey, located between Cannery Row and Downtown Monterey, is a coastal and residential Monterey neighborhood with hillside streets and bay views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Lighthouse Avenue near David Avenue, where coffee counters, small galleries, and corner markets set a steady, walkable rhythm. The Monterey Museum of Art at La Mirada, Hula’s Island Grill, and the historic Doc Rickett’s Pacific Biological Laboratories on Cannery Row act as local touchstones. Early-20th-century cottages and compact apartment buildings mix with midcentury lines on the slopes above the water. Pocket parks and stair-stepped blocks connect to the shoreline path and the Monterey Bay Coastal Recreation Trail. Foggy mornings and salt air give the streets a calm, maritime feel.
