Green Brook Flood Control Project: Saving Bound Brook Abstract Bound Brook, New Jersey sits between Middle Brook, Green Brook and a bend on the Raritan River in the Triassic Basin of New Jersey. Like many cities and towns all over the world, it was originally situated on the river to take advantage of fresh water for drinking, transportation and trade. As transportation networks have become centered around motor vehicles, the importance of river transportation and trade has become less important. However, communities continue to live within flood zones begging the questions: Why do towns continue to thrive on the river’s edge? Are river towns viable? Should they be encouraged and saved through the use of taxpayer dollars? Faced with these questions, the communities in the area surrounding Bound Brook spent many years convincing the national, regional and local authorities that saving Bound Brook was important and cost effective. The Army Corps of Engineers embarked on the Green Brook Flood Control Project, one of the most comprehensive and ambitious projects undertaken anywhere. The solution involved residential buyouts, wetlands mitigation, bridge reconstruction, railroad realignment, installation of large pumping stations, upgrading regional storm- water collection, flood-proofing, channel modifications, and vle ee and flood wall construction.

  • New Jersey's Washington Rocks
    From Robert A. Mayers’s new book, “Revolutionary New Jersey: Forgotten Towns and Crossroads of the New Jersey’s American Revolution” Washington Rocks by Robert A. Mayers Finding the Eagle’s Perch | Robert A. Mayers | www.GardenStateLegacy.com Issue 40 June 2018 t is difficult today to imagine the significance that the Watchung Mountains held during the Revolutionary War. IWashington Rock, located in present-day Green Brook Township, is the location of the best known of several Revolutionary War observation posts that may be found on the crest of the first ridge of the Watchung Mountains. Historians and local residents claim that General George Washington used all of these sites to scan the countryside and observe the movements of British troops on the plains of central New Jersey, Staten Island and New York City. I first selected Washington Rock as a critical site of the Revolutionary War that has been neglected in the history of the Garden State. However, while today it is typically acknowledged as being the only lookout, my research has recently revealed that it was one of several places along the first ridge of the Watchung Mountains used by General Washington during the One of the war as an observation post. The first ridge provides a 60-mile panoramic view of central New Jersey, stretching from Newark to Trenton. Troop most movements in the British-occupied areas around New Brunswick, Perth Amboy, Elizabeth, Staten Island and New York important Harbor could be closely watched from its several vantage points. These lookouts, at an elevation of between 400 and 500 feet above the central plains of New Jersey, provided the places had American Army with a unique sight advantage.
