Glassboro, NJ


It might seem like an unlikely college town, but Glassboro, home to the increasingly prominent Rowan University, has embraced its traditional downtown revival centered around the school's growth. In fact, Rowan's connection to Glassboro's commercial center, a sustainable economic growth initiative known as the Rowan Boulevard Downtown Development Project, will feature a new public square and professional services district that will offer 150,000 square feet of office space and opportunities for growing industries like life sciences, financial services and IT. Easily accessible to primary highways, transportation is a priority, bringing 1,200 employees to Rowan alone every day. Beyond the school, there is ample history and culture--Hollybush Mansion, Heritage Glass Museum and South Jersey American History Museum--for visitors to drink in.
