About Lower Clinton
Hill
Lower Clinton Hill, located between Branch Brook Park and Downtown Newark, is a residential and civic Newark neighborhood with late-19th-century rowhouses and a park-lined street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Bloomfield Avenue near Lake Street, where corner bodegas, barbershops, and takeout counters keep the sidewalks active. Brick two- and three-story homes mix with small apartment buildings and institutional facades along Broad Street. Branch Brook Park’s paths and cherry trees shape daily routines at the western edge. Community touchstones include the Newark Museum of Art, NJPAC, and the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart.
