Historic architecture and community spirit in Springfield-Belmont
Springfield-Belmont, a small residential neighborhood of Newark, is located in what is known as the Central Ward. "It has a great neighborhood feel," Brendan Da Silva, a real estate agent with the Da Silva Team, said. "People know each other in the area." Springfield-Belmont is home to varied grand architecture, mainly found on Martin Luther King Boulevard. These historic buildings add character to the neighborhood's central pipeline, including the vast art deco structure that houses Arts High School near the large, brown-bricked Cathedral of St. James AME Church and the Krueger-Scott Mansion. This magnificent Victorian-style structure is the most expensive residence ever built in Newark. It's also less than 20 miles from Midtown, making trips in and out of New York City seamless.

Mostly townhomes and apartments, and people like being near University Hospital

Nat Turner Park, recreation centers, and the library provide lots to do
Named after the leader of the 19th-century rebellion for enslaved people, Nat Turner Park is Newark's largest city-owned park. The space is a recreational haven for all residents, from its paved walking paths to its football field, track, and playground. On hot summer days, you can swim with your neighbors at the Hayes Park West Recreation Center's outdoor pool. Within Jesse Allen Park, you'll find a state-of-the-art skatepark, basketball courts and a water spray area. Once a struggling natural grass field, city officials turned Hank Aaron Field around and made it a premier local baseball field. Upgraded to a synthetic turf field, it now has a home run plaza, more bleachers, an announcer's booth and more.
Learn how to swim at the John F. Kennedy Recreation Center. Or put your dancing feet to work at the weekly soul line dancing class. At the New Community Recreation Center, residents can seek housing, education, health care, financial stability and childcare assistance. The New Community Corporation offers a wealth of services for neighborhood children.
