Make the Most of Your Piscataway Stay

A university town with deep American roots

Piscataway may not appear on most travel itineraries, but this central New Jersey township offers something distinctive: the convergence of colonial American history and Big Ten athletic energy. Founded in 1666 as one of New Jersey's oldest settlements, the area preserves its heritage through sites like the Cornelius Low House, a 1741 Georgian manor now serving as the Middlesex County Museum, and East Jersey Old Town Village, where historic structures recreate 18th-century Raritan Valley life. The modern identity centers on Rutgers University's Busch and Livingston campuses, home to SHI Stadium and Jersey Mike's Arena, which draw thousands for football games and basketball tournaments.

Business hub with surprising cultural depth

Corporate travelers will find Piscataway's location exceptionally practical, positioned 19 miles from Newark Liberty International Airport with straightforward access to both New York City and Philadelphia via the Northeast Corridor rail line. The Livingston Campus houses Rutgers Business School, making it a frequent venue for conferences and recruiting events. Johnson Park's 473 acres along the Raritan River provide scenic trails, while the township's remarkable diversity creates an authentic multicultural dining scene beyond typical suburban offerings.

Strategic positioning for regional exploration

The township functions as an efficient base for exploring the broader region, with Princeton 30 minutes south and Manhattan's museums 45 minutes by train. Day trips to Asbury Park's boardwalk or Delaware Water Gap trails remain within an hour's drive. Accommodations near university campuses provide proximity to both academic facilities and the historic river corridor.
