Nearby
Nearby is an adverb or an adjective meaning ‘not far away’:
e.g. Does Paul live nearby ? (adverb)
e.g. Luckily, the nearby buildings weren’t damaged by the fire. (adjective)
We don’t use nearby as a preposition. We use near:
e.g. He worked in a restaurant near the station.
Not: He worked in a restaurant nearby the station .
