PEEK Properties starts leasing at 138-unit multifamily The Highland

Orange, NJ PEEK Properties has launched leasing at its newest upscale multifamily community known as The Highland, located at 416 Highland Ave. in the southwest section of the city. Situated at the corner of Highland and Lincoln Aves., the 138-unit five-story building is the latest luxury addition to the city’s expanding apartment-rental housing stock, which includes PEEK’s Orange Crossing redevelopment downtown.

Situated at the Orange-West Orange boundary and a five-minute walk to NJ Transit’s Highland Station, The Highland features a mix of studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom open-concept layouts ranging from 533 s/f to 1,163 s/f. Apartments feature vaulted ceilings, a balcony or patio, vinyl flooring and in-unit washer/dryer. Island kitchen finishes include white-washed cabinetry, a pantry, white subway-tile backsplash and quartz countertops with a stainless-steel appliance package with a dishwasher and a microwave. 

On-premises community and outdoor spaces range from a fitness center, resident lounge and business hub to an outdoor courtyard deck with chaises, gas grills, fire pits and a dog park. Surface-lot and covered garage parking with EV chargers are available on site. 

“As East Essex County’s most-transformative city, Orange is drawing a new wave of renters by choice, from advanced-degree students and young professionals to executives with families and highly educated empty nesters,” said Darla Rodriguez, PEEK’s director of property management. “THE HIGHLAND is drawing a great deal of attention among this cohort, especially those with ties to the region who value the high-end living experience and balance within a smaller city that is merging its historic roots with a modern urban lifestyle.”
