Row houses and proximity to the Port of Camden define Morgan Village
Venturing into New Jersey via the Walt Whitman Bridge, one of the first neighborhoods you'll pass is Morgan Village in Camden. At the city's south end, low-slung red brick row houses compose most of the community's housing options. Arranged in a typical city grid pattern, Morgan Village sits at the intersection of Interstate 676 and Morgan Street, a primary thoroughfare that passes a large apartment community, a sizable public green-space park and a densely populated subsection of the community. Another significant element of the Morgan Village is its proximity to the Port of Camden. Most dockyard industries operate on the other side of the interstate, but you'll still find warehouses and a truck terminal within the more residential side of the community.
Single family row homes account for most of the housing in Morgan Village.

Veronica Woods, a real estate advisor and investor with Daniel Woods Real Estate, says local officials in nearby Chester have looked to Camden for guidance on revitalizing its community based on the latter's success, particularly along the Delaware River waterfront, where many go to attend outdoor concerts at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion or check out the penguins and other sea creatures at Camden's Adventure Aquarium. "People make a lot of comparisons" between the two communities, Woods says. "They've both been economically depressed areas. But [Camden] has really brought a lot of life and jobs back to the community."
The Camden Waterfront is about 10 minutes from Morgan Village.
