Getting to the NJIT Campus from the Robert Treat Hotel
The NJIT campus is located within walking distance from the Robert Treat Hotel (0.6 miles) via Central Avenue .
If public transportation is preferred, we recommend a short walk (0.3 miles) from the hotel to the Military Park Light Rail Station (underground), from where the second stop is the Warren Street/NJIT Station ($0.70 Underground Fare), which is located in front to one of the campus entrances. To get to the Campus Center or the Eberhardt Hall, you may walk around the construction site to reach the campus green, or enter the building in front of the station and exit it the other side on the campus green.
