Boonton is a historic Morris County town of about 8,800 set on steep hillsides above the Rockaway River, with a 19th-century industrial past and a walkable Main Street. The housing is old and varied — Victorians and period homes on the hilly older streets, with the steep terrain adding wind exposure and access challenges that newer suburbs don't have.
Housing in Boonton
Older and characterful: Victorians and 19th-to-early-20th-century homes on the steep streets above downtown, with some newer single-family on the outskirts. Steep, hilly lots, original slate and aging asphalt, and tricky access are the recurring themes.
What we most commonly find on Boonton roofs
- Original slate and aging asphalt on Victorian homes
- Steep hillside access and wind exposure
