Morris County Seat · Downtown Destination · Revolutionary History
Morristown, New Jersey
Morristown combines a dense, walkable downtown with major healthcare, arts, government, rail service and some of New Jersey's most significant Revolutionary War history.
This guide focuses on the Town of Morristown itself. Nearby places using a Morristown mailing address may actually be in Morris Township and are identified separately when relevant.
Municipal boundary matters: 07960 is broader than the incorporated Town of Morristown. NJTGO does not treat a Morristown postal address as proof that a business, hotel, school, park or attraction lies inside the town.

Why Morristown Stands Out
Morristown Green
The historic public square is the center of downtown life, surrounded by shops, restaurants, offices, churches and community events.
Revolutionary War History
Washington's Headquarters at the Ford Mansion, Fort Nonsense and nearby Jockey Hollow anchor Morristown National Historical Park.
Mayo Performing Arts Center
MPAC at 100 South Street is one of the region's major venues for concerts, theater, comedy, dance and family programming.
Morristown Medical Center
Atlantic Health's 100 Madison Avenue campus is a major regional hospital and one of the town's most important employment anchors.
Downtown Events
The 2026 calendar includes the Festival on the Green, Farmers Market, Festival of Books, Halloween events and Christmas Festival programming.
HQ | Plaza
The Headquarters Plaza complex has undergone a major concourse transformation connecting offices, Hyatt Regency, cinema, fitness and downtown activity.
2026 Planning & Housing
Morristown's Planning Board continues to work under its master-plan framework while the Town advances its Fourth Round affordable-housing compliance. A 2026 first amendment to the Housing Element and Fair Share Plan and related implementation measures are part of the current planning picture.
For residents and buyers, this makes redevelopment, inclusionary housing, zoning, parking, density and neighborhood context especially important when evaluating a property or proposed project.
