New North End
Venture further up North Avenue, or take the “Beltline” (a bypass connecting the Old North End to Colchester) to the New North End which extends to the borders of Colchester, encompasses much of Burlington’s waterfront, including North Beach and Leddy Park, and is home to the City’s only public High School, Burlington High School, as well as Rock Point School, J. J. Flynn Elementary School, C. P. Smith Elementary School, and Lyman C. Hunt Middle School. The New North End is undergoing a substantial revitalization for both commercial and residential development. It also boasts the high-end residential development of single-family homes along the valuable waterfront property of Appletree Bay and Appletree Point.
