This $2,450-a-month studio is in the Park Francis, which is located on Hamilton Park, the greenspace that gives the neighborhood its name. Silverman

With the rising popularity of everything even remotely "Hamilton"-related, you could say that it was only a matter of time before Hamilton Park in Jersey City began reaping the benefits.

As you may have guessed, the neighborhood is centered around a park, which was named after the Founding Father and dates back to the mid-1800s. It has new residential developments with lots of amenities, as well as restaurants and outdoor attractions.

The area is chock-full of tree-lined streets and 19th century brownstones that surround the five-acre park, which offers community programs such as outdoor movie screenings in the summer, sports leagues, and even Shakespeare plays. It has two tennis courts, a basketball court, two dog parks, a handful of playgrounds, and a splash area.

New luxury rental properties in the nabe include Revetment House, an industrial-chic building with amenities that include a dog run, fitness center, landscaped deck with a BBQ area, outdoor playground, and shuttle service to the PATH station; and 485 Marin, which offers an outdoor pool with a sundeck, residents’ lounge, and public park with walking paths, a playground, dog run, and picnic areas.

Plans are also in the works for MGM Marin Boulevard, which will bring 482 rental units, 121 parking spaces, and a 14,000-square-foot amenity space to Hamilton Park in 2022.

New eateries have opened their doors as well, including Van Hook Cheese Outpost, a walk-up sandwich counter from the folks at Jersey City’s Van Hook Cheese; and Tacos Victoria, which serves an extensive menu of tacos, burritos, sopes, quesadillas, fajitas, and more.

The neighborhood is a 14-minute walk to the Grove Street PATH station, and then it's 20 minutes to 33rd Street in Manhattan. You can also take the ferry.

Thinking about moving to Hamilton Park? Then check out these five studios and one bedrooms that you can rent for under $2,715 a month—far lower than the $3,550 median price for a Manhattan one bedroom.
