  • The Historic New Bridge Landing State Park Commission Annual
    The Historic New Bridge Landing State Park Commission Annual Report for 2016 A young visitor peers into an open window to see what is happening at the Steuben House at Historic New Bridge Landing State Park, for Calico Frolic 2016. 1 Respectfully submitted to the Governor and Legislature of New Jersey December 2016 B. Spencer Newman’s painting depicts the darkest hour of the American Revolution, when General George Washington led the outnumbered Continental garrison of Fort Lee across the Hackensack River at New Bridge on November 20, 1776. Doubtful to the last moment, this crossing preserved American hopes in the face of invasion by an army of Europe’s finest troops. Eyewitness-to-history Thomas Paine stands in the left foreground. Literally occupying the Crossroads of the American Revolution, the Zabriskie- Steuben House—the only extant house along the route of the retreat in Bergen County—went on to survive more of the war than any other home in America. The State of NJ acquired this landmark dwelling in 1928 as a perpetual memorial to the “times that try men’s souls.” 2 Dear Governor Chris Christie and Legislators: Pursuant to our responsibilities under Public Law 2009, chapter 45, the Historic New Bridge Landing Park Commission submits this annual report for 2016. 2016 has been another banner year for Historic New Bridge Landing. The key to our success is consistently exciting and innovative programming that not only attracts new audiences, but repeat visitors as well. We succeed because we understand quality programming depends not only upon having an interesting and engaging story to tell, but also on coordinating the talents of highly motivated and well educated volunteers from a variety of professions, who generously share their enthusiasm with guests, and, most importantly, who create a pervasive culture of hospitality, respect for the lessons of our history and a commitment to stewardship over a significant American Revolutionary War battleground, which gave life to our nation.

By: Joe Hopkins —--‘S PREFACE In writing this book of historical sketches of the Waflowa National Forest, the author makes no claim of literary merit. The story is developed from the authors personal knowledge and from the best known authorities available. The author believes that a knowledge of the early history of the Inland Enpire as it influenced the local area, of the Native American Inhabitants, and the struggles by which our ancestors took possession of this land, are necessary for an understanding of the prejudices and mores of our poople today. Therefor, several chapters have been devotec to the early period of exploration and settlement. It was decided to end the story of the Wallowa at the close of the year 1954.

The CLI is an evaluated inventory of all landscapes having historical significance that are listed on or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places, or are otherwise managed as cultural resources through a public planning process and in which the NPS has or plans to acquire any legal interest. The CLI identifies and documents each landscape’s location, size, physical development, condition, landscape characteristics, character-defining features, as well as other valuable information useful to park management. Cultural landscapes become approved CLIs when concurrence with the findings is obtained from the park superintendent and all required data fields are entered into a national database.
