About The Valley / Downtown

The valley floor — the oldest and most densely populated section. Home to Thomas Edison National Historical Park (laboratory and Glenmont estate), the Valley Arts District (formerly 34 hat factories that made West Orange the hat capital of America), and Main Street's commercial corridor. Condos, townhomes, and multi-family properties offer the most affordable entry into West Orange. Luna Stage and the West Orange Arts Center anchor the creative community.
