Tenafly, NJ Real Estate

Tenafly (pronounced / t ›n ™ flaj/ ) is a borough in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. As of the 2000 Census, the borough population was 13,806.

The first to settle in Tenafly were the Dutch in the late 1600s. The name "Tenafly" is derived from the Dutch words "Tiene Vly" or "Ten Swamps" which was given by Dutch settlers in 1688. [1] It is sometimes thought to mean "ten holes" from a legend describing Dutch settlers digging ten wells in the town. [ citation needed ]

Tenafly was incorporated as a borough on January 24, 1894 under an act of the New Jersey Legislature. It was created from portions of the now-defunct Palisades Township. [2]

Tenafly is located at 40 °55 20 N, 73 °57 50 W (40.922139, -73.963772) GR1.

The eastern half of the town is known as the "East Hill" for its higher elevation in relation to the rest of the borough. The terrain rises rapidly to the east of the downtown area, ending at the spectacular New Jersey Palisades, overlooking the Hudson River. From atop the cliffs, Tenafly residents have a wide-ranging view of New York City.
