The Garden Apartments - Unclaimed

New Monterey sits on the coast above Monterey Bay, with steep streets, ocean views and a mild, often foggy climate. Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium are nearby, while the neighborhood’s shoreline paths connect to coastal walks and outdoor recreation. Local restaurants and cafés are concentrated along Lighthouse Avenue and around Cannery Row; shopping ranges from everyday services to galleries and specialty shops. Historic buildings and the area’s links to Monterey’s fishing and canning past give the streets a distinctive character, with live music and evening dining adding to the scene. Residents can get around on foot in the commercial areas, though hills make some routes challenging. Monterey-Salinas Transit buses serve the city, and Highway 1 connects the area to the wider coast. For the New Monterey neighborhood, median rent is $2,975 per month, with a typical range of $1,500 to $6,000.
