Millburn/Short
Hills
Information
During the
Revolutionary War, it was in the Millburn area where American militia
stopped the British advance toward Morristown. Today the Millburn-Short
Hills area is principally a suburban residential community where
residents consider it a most desirable place to live.
From a one-room schoolhouse origin, education in Millburn-Short Hills
has developed to rank among the outstanding quality school systems of
the state. At the elementary level, every effort is made to determine
the specific strengths of each student’s social, emotional, intellectual
and physical development. From Millburn High School, over 95% of each
high school graduation class has attended post secondary institutions.
About half of Essex County’s 2,000-acre South Mountain Reservation lies
within the Township. Other open spaces include three municipal parks,
three golf courses, two water reserves, a reservoir and small parcels of
undeveloped land. The Cora Hartshorn Arboretum and Bird Sanctuary is 16
acres of birds, wildflowers and trees. The Arboretum Association
sponsors classes, lectures workshops and field trips in nature study and
crafts. The Paper Mill Playhouse, a nonprofit regional theatre for over
40 years, offers a full range of cultural events, including musicals,
plays and children’s programs. It is large enough to accommodate the New
Jersey Symphony Orchestra and the New Jersey State Opera. The Mall at
Short Hills houses more than 170 fine shops including Bloomingdale’s,
Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom’s and Macy’s.
Newark Liberty International Airport is a twenty-minute drive away. Two
train lines funnel into Millburn and Short Hills: Midtown Direct moving
directly into Penn Station located in Midtown Manhattan and New Jersey
Transit’s original line which carries passengers into Hoboken where PATH
trains connect to lower Manhattan and Wall Street. Trains stop in both
Millburn and Short Hills. Direct access to Routes 24, I-78, I-287, I-280
connect Millburn and Short Hills to the major metropolitan network.
