For professionals commuting to New York City or Philadelphia, finding the right home base can feel like a balancing act. You want convenience. You want comfort. And you want value — without sacrificing style.

At The Bell, located at 216 East State Street in downtown Trenton, you get all three.

Housed in the beautifully restored former Bell Telephone Building from the early 1900s, The Bell blends historic character with modern luxury — all just minutes from the region’s most important transit hub.

  

One of the biggest advantages of living at The Bell is its proximity to the Trenton Transit Center.

From here, residents enjoy direct rail service to:

  • New York City (via NJ Transit or Amtrak)
  • Philadelphia (via SEPTA or Amtrak)
  • Connections throughout New Jersey and the Northeast Corridor

That means less time driving, less stress parking, and more time doing what matters — whether that’s advancing your career, enjoying dinner in the city, or heading home for a relaxing evening in your luxury apartment.

For commuters, convenience isn’t a luxury — it’s essential. And at The Bell, it’s built into your everyday routine.

   

Living at The Bell offers:

  • High ceilings and oversized windows
  • Modern kitchens with upscale finishes
  • First-class Fitness Center
