If you’re in the market for a new home, look no further than McGinley Square — a small neighborhood in Jersey City that is gaining popularity. McGinley Square is located near the middle of the city, south of Journal Square and a quick walk the the PATH. The square itself is at the intersection of two of the city’s major thoroughfares, Montgomery Street {which runs from Downtown at Exchange Place to West Side}, and Bergen Avenue {which runs between Greenville and Journal Square}. Our friends at Boutique Realty have shared some properties that are available now in the neighborhood as well as some local favorites {because if you’re moving somewhere, you’ve gotta make sure good food is nearby}:

The area was named after Monsignor Roger McGinley, the builder of St. Aedans Church, and it’s also home to one of the fiercest battles fought in the American revolution led by George Washington {against the British army}.
Neighborhood favorites:

This is an amazing homemade chocolate shop, owned and managed by the 4th generation of the same family.
