About Southwestern Perth

Amboy

Southwestern Perth Amboy, located between the Arthur Kill waterfront and the Garden State Parkway corridor, is a residential and industrial Perth Amboy neighborhood with working piers and compact blocks of mid-century homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Smith Street and New Brunswick Avenue area, where corner delis, auto shops, and small storefronts set a steady, utilitarian rhythm. Brick rowhouses and modest capes mix with warehouse edges and rail-adjacent streets. Waterfront air and ship-channel views shape the daily backdrop. Nearby green space and shoreline paths add room to roam without changing the area’s grounded feel.
