The area that radiates twenty-two square blocks from the crossroads is a state and federal historic district. Today, no vehicle traffic is allowed to turn at Broad and Market.

Traffic trying to go northbound on Broad Street should make a left on Washington Street, then a right on Raymond. All Broad Street traffic heading from around Broad Street Station trying to access Market Street's eastbound traffic should take a left on Park Place, then a right on Mulberry Street down to Market Street. The same goes with westbound traffic, as well as taking a right on Raymond Avenue, then a left on University.The crossing became the center of the town soon after establishment in 1666; the home of founder Robert Treat was located at the southwest corner. During the next centuries it remained the focal point of the city which grew around it. By 1834 the United New Jersey Railroad and Canal Company had established a terminal to the south and in 1869 the Newark and New York Railroad had one to the north. During the period of massive expansion at the start of the 20th century, the district became the city's modern business district, and site of its first skyscraper built by the Firemen's Insurance Company at the southeast corner in 1910. The Newark Public Service Terminal on Broad Street opened in 1916. Though faded in its former glory, the Four Corners district remains Newark's traditional center for commerce and business and since the late 2000s (decade) the focus of much interest in revitalizing retail, residential, and restaurant activity downtown.
