Hi, I lived in one of the new apartments off Monitor and Maple for 3+ years. Right next to Liberty State Park stop. Just moved out of state though. Area has been built up a lot even in the short time I was there. Very safe. There is very little to do though and not a lot of food options. Groceries are limited and you will have to do bodegas or Amazon Fresh delivery or drive to Bayonne to Costco/Lidl weekly. Rent went up a lot in lux bldgs and I don’t think it’s worth what they’re trying to charge now to be honest, but it is what it is. Same company owns Solaris Lofts and Hazel, and is scooping stuff up before Sci Tech City becomes a real thing. It still feels like it is 5 years away and there will be a lot of construction on every street for a while. Pinwheel and Nurish (new to area) are run by a bunch of nice guys, stop in both and say hi.
