A sprawling residential grid with a touch of nature in Eastside
Eastside's sprawling urban character converges on the more centralized layout of Downtown Paterson. “The housing here is quite varied, it’s not like the neighborhood was a planned development,” says Fernando Leyva, a Realtor with Real Broker who’s been selling homes in New Jersey for 7 years. Yet there are various threads that bring this neighborhood’s identity together, such as transportation and convenience. “There’s easy access to shops, schools, highways and New York,” says Linda Iriarte, a Realtor with Unicasa Union Realty who has been selling homes in the area for 27 years. And despite its extensive grid of residential streets, this area does have a touch of nature, with park space meeting the Passaic River – the aqueous boundary of Eastside’s eastern face.
Various home style can be found in neighborhoods around Eastside.

Midcentury homes to multi-family properties
“Houses are everything from ranch to colonial,” says Leyva. “Much of it is from the 30s to 50s. If you want something that stands out more, it’s in the Eastside Historic District.” Early 20th-century homes have details like front porches with columns. Robert Lowery, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Susani, agrees with this trend about house hunting further east in Eastside. “The homes have a little more style and are older, but in very good shape,” he says. Elsewhere, the detached midcentury homes that Leyva speaks of can run between $400,000 and $500,000. Detached multi-family homes appear above that, ranging from $500,000 to $700,000. These can have a boxy minimalist façade or tend toward the ornate with Victorian and colonial stylings. Homes can have yards, but this is an urban environment, so the lots are often pressed close to a sidewalk.
Large single-family homes can be found in some parts of Eastside.
In Eastside, Paterson, NJ, you'll find streets lined with colonial-style homes.

Latin American dining dominates on 21st Avenue
For a semblance of the neighborhood’s restaurant row, where eateries can reliably be found block to block, 21st Avenue is the place. There’s a strong Latin American trend along the strip, with cuisines representing Colombian, Salvadoran and Peruvian cultures. Starting at the cross street of Madison Avenue, there’s a stretch of several blocks down 21st known as Colombian Corridor. The presentation can lean toward the authentic and traditional, like at Noches De Colombia, which serves empanadas and a cheese bread called pandebono. The local nicknames continue five blocks north at Park Avenue, pridefully referred to as Dominican Republic Way. Traditional Dominican foods like mashed plantains can be found at Elsa La Reina Del Chicharron. “The dining scene is very diverse,” says Leyva. As might be expected, small specialty grocers and markets dot the landscape. But for a more traditional supermarket experience, residents can go to Food Universe Marketplace on East 30th Street.
The streets of Eastside are filled with residents on warm summer days.
Noches de Colombia has been offering home made Colombian delicacies to its customers for years.

Specialized high schools, like Paterson STEAM High
Children can begin their education at Paterson School 6, a kindergarten through eighth-grade institution. The school has a 17-to-1 student-teacher ratio and earns a C-minus from Niche. Specialized high schools give the neighborhood some competitive appeal, like Rosa L. Parks School of Fine & Performing Arts, which is rated B-minus. Residents apply with an art portfolio, and then choose a track of study, such as drama, dance, commercial art or piano. Paterson STEAM High School focuses on various technical pursuits selected sophomore year, such as medicine, engineering and computer science. The school earns a C-minus.
Paterson School 6 inspires a strong sense of community in the neighborhood.
Rosa L. Parks is ranked #13 in the state's best high schools for the arts.

Eastside Park draws visitors after its $2 million makeover
Eastside may have the Passaic River, but what really brings this natural feature closer to home is having Eastside Park next to it. “It’s a nice place to take a walk,” says Leyva. The space is also big on helping residents get their hands dirty, whether that’s at the Learning Garden, the Urban Farm or the Children’s Garden. The park was designed in 1899, so its heritage is right in line with the historic district surrounding it. But in 2023 the entire space got a makeover to the tune of $2 million. New tennis courts, pedestrian pathways and a playground were installed. Uniquely, cricket is played at the park, and the game's grounds were renovated, too. Wrigley Park, near the northwestern corner, is a much smaller but has a nautical-themed playground, plus basketball courts surrounded by murals.

Paterson Station is walking distance from the west side
Buses run along the major thoroughfares like Broadway, Park Avenue and Market Street. Walkability is a highlighted feature here, especially with dining and retail clustered together along these strips. Interstate 80 curves along the south side, creating a useful amenity for commuters and natural neighborhood border. But commuters can also walk over to Paterson Station on Ward Street, just a few paces from where Market meets Straight Street – the neighborhood’s western face. The Main-Bergen County train line goes to places like Hoboken and Suffern.
