The scenic west bank of the Hudson River is the source of the “cliffs” in Englewood Cliffs’ name.

Englewood Boat Basin is located at the foot of the Palisades Park.
Around 200 performances are staged at the
Bergen Arts Center in nearby Englewood every year. Many legendary performers have graced the stage of this not-for-profit theater over its decades of operation. It also offers world-class dance, music, theater, and voice training.
