Riverton Borough, Riverton, NJ,
established in 1851, is located on the Delaware River. With
its sidewalks, gas lamps and victorian flavor, the town
has maintained a charm through the decades by the ever-present
care and volunteer spirit that its residents possess.
Riverton is home to the Riverton
Yacht Club. One of the oldest and still active yacht clubs
in the country. Many resident's sailboats make their home
at this wonderful landmark. Downtown, the new Riverline
Light Rail system has contributed to a resurgence in public
transportation. The Riverline offers daily service shuttling
travelers between metro Camden and Trenton with connections
to Philadelphia and New York City.
