Travel + Leisure's August 2010 issue has a list of "Coolest Suburbs Worth a Visit," and Montclair is first on the list. Baristanet is unimpressed, as to live in Montclair is to know it's a "cool" suburb, but the article does make you think- what makes a suburb a travel destination? There is a lot here for a variety of different sightseers. Gardeners and horticulturalists can stop by the Van Vleck Gardens and Presby Iris Garden. Fans of independent bookstores have two to visit, Watchung Booksellers and Montclair Book Center. Art lovers can take in the Montclair Art Museum, and history buffs can tour the Montclair Historical Society. And foodie-types will have as much and as varied a meal plan as they could hope for (Thai! Japanese! Greek! French! Mexican! Pizza! Bagels! The list goes on!).
