Notes
  • Significance: This area grew most rapidly during the last two decades of the 19th century as a residential neighborhood for the new immigrant population which was drawn to Jersey City by the expanding industrial and commercial nature of the area. This growth concentrated on the undeveloped area between the traditional affluent community of Van Vorst Park and the new industrial area to the west.

Most of the Montgomery Gateway East area was made-up of four to five story tenement houses which sometimes contained commercial establishments on the lower level. Trenton brick with brownstone or Ohio stone and terra cotta trim were the most common materials of the facades. These buildings were generally laid out as "railroad flats," on 25' x 100' lots. These buildings usually contained two families to each floor.
