Pompton Lakes's lakefront lots are the most distinctive masonry conversations in town. Retaining walls within the riparian buffer need to respect both the waterline and the township's environmental thresholds, and stepped paths from the house down to a dock or beach area need stone that won't slick under wet feet. Inland blocks are standard NJ suburbs — driveways, walkways, chimney repointing, the occasional rear patio. The borough's construction office is responsive on permits, typically a week for residential.
