Dense residential area with industrial center
Carlstadt is a New Jersey borough with proximity to endless shopping and dining, as well as some of the area’s biggest attractions. Half of the community is a high-density residential neighborhood, while the other half consists of industrial space and a wildlife conservation area. “The industrial area is on the other side of Route 17, so you really don’t see it from the homes,” says Sharon Robie, a Realtor with Modern Realty Group, who’s been selling homes in the area for nearly a decade. Just south of the neighborhood are the famous Meadowlands Sports Complex and the American Dream Mall, the second-largest in the country.
