Come Hang With Us

Halsey Downtown Newark has experienced a bit of a glow-up over the last few years. As one of the country’s oldest cities, you can learn a lot about the city’s culture from just a short walk downtown. Even many famous faces you may recognize today, like Shaq, Michael B. Jordan, Tichina Arnold, and more, once called this city home. It’s a city that the locals will tell you was just built differently, and it’s that culture of hustle and heart that has revitalized the downtown area. If you ask many natives from Downtown Newark, they will tell you it didn’t always look like this. But things are changing. With longtime residents creating new ventures to showcase their pride in their hometown to the influx of new residents from surrounding areas like Montclair, Jersey City, and New York City — the Arts and Entertainment district has been seeing a reawakening with the arrivals of new businesses and entrepreneurs over the past several years. Halsey is the embodiment of that shift, and now we’re ready to show what we got to residents and visitors alike. Today, there’s something for everyone, whether you want to spend the afternoon at The Newark Art Museum or go shopping at Brown Mill — the options to live, work and be entertained on Halsey Street are only growing.
