On Main Street, well-kept houses display plaques engraved with dates from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.Others, keeping pace with the borough's lively, contemporary mood, have been transformed into comfortable coffee shops, restaurants and specialty shops. Away from the quaint downtown area, houses of varying ages and architectural styles line quiet streets.The serene parks in Pennington are perfect to enjoy with kids at the playground or for those looking to take an evening walk.
