Downtown is where the city first concentrated, around Prospect Street and Main Avenue near the river landing and the railroad of 1831. Main Avenue curves with the river from Passaic Park into downtown, and Broadway ends at it.
Shops, restaurants and businesses in older commercial and mixed-use buildings, landmarks such as the People's Bank and Trust Company Building at 663 Main Avenue and the Elks Club on Howe Avenue, and two- and three-family houses near Main Avenue dating back to the late 1800s.

Call (973) 576-8084Note 01What to look for when choosing a roofing contractor?
A New Jersey home improvement contractor registration number on the quote, a written scope that names the materials, and a roofer who looks before pricing. In Passaic add one more: ask them where the water on your roof is meant to go, and why it stopped.
Note 02How urgent is roof repair?
It depends on what the water is doing. Water coming in now, near anything electrical, or showing in another unit is urgent; so is a blocked outlet with rain forecast. A cracked shingle over a dry ceiling can wait for a dry week.
Note 03How to repair a flat roof without replacing it?
Fix the drainage and the detail that failed. Most flat roofs that look finished are a sound membrane with one bad outlet and a pond beside it. Clearing or resetting the outlet, building up the low spot and repairing the seams that sat underwater can give the roof years more. If the membrane is cracked across the field, you are told so.
Note 04What's the average price to fix a roof?
Published national figures put the average roof repair at around $900, inside a range of about $300 to $3,000. In Passaic, height and flat rear roofs move it: a handyman in a Passaic County thread put a two-hole repair at $1,500 to $2,500 at the height of the house he was looking at.
