Teachers Village Newark
Teachers Village is surrounded by five universities with a community of 50,000 teachers, students and administrators. There is great potential for collaboration between Teachers Village and the surrounding corporate and academic community. Outreach to the universities as well as to leading corporate and institutional entities such as Audible.com, Panasonic, Prudential, PSE&G, Verizon, and area science and business incubators will enable Teachers Village to generate ideas and social capital within the community; and most importantly, to inspire its students and teachers to learn and earn the skills necessary for the 21st century.
“Smart classrooms” integrated within the various residential buildings provide yet another opportunity for offering after hours classes in arts, technology and design or simply to advance one's degree. Teachers Village presents a unique opportunity to learn about the future based on the next generation’s interests and innovations.
Teachers Village is a new mixed-use community in the heart of downtown Newark. Designed by world-renowned architect Richard Meier, Teachers Village is located on five blocks along Halsey Street south of Market Street.
It features six new buildings consisting of:
