Fort Lee sits atop the Hudson Palisades at the eastern end of the George Washington Bridge. Its location makes it one of Bergen County’s most important gateways to Manhattan and a major center for high-rise residential development, offices, restaurants, hotels, and retail activity. Interstates 95 and 80, along with Routes 4, 46, and 9W, converge in and around the borough. Fort Lee Historic Park overlooks the Hudson River and preserves the area’s Revolutionary War history. The borough also played a major role in the early American motion-picture industry before filmmaking shifted to California. Fort Lee’s neighborhoods range from dense apartment corridors near the bridge and Main Street to quieter residential streets farther west. It borders Englewood Cliffs, Cliffside Park, Leonia, and Palisades Park, and maintains close transportation and economic ties with New York City.
