His son Symen built the Van Wickle House facing the river in 1722. The house survived through the time of the Revolutionary War and, in 1830, the Delaware and Raritan Canal was built through the front yard. The house has been a farmhouse, colonial showplace, and home for generations of owners. The house is valued as a good example of Dutch architecture unique to the New Jersey – New York area. VAN WICKLE HOUSE Thomas Edison Park Thomas Alva Edison was a very influential inventor and businessman of America. He developed many devices that had a great impact worldwide, including the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and the light bulb. This park has dedicated a museum and a memorial tower that contains the biggest light bulb in the world. This memorial is complemented by a small state park that can be used for nice strolls or short, easy hikes. EDISON MEMORIAL PARK PESPECTIVES CONCEPTUAL VIEW Cheesequake State Park Cheesequake State Park is a 1,569 acre unique site consisting of open fields, to salt water and fresh water marshes, to white cedar swamps and Pine Barrens, to its unique hardwood forests. Cheesequake State Park opened 1940 after New Jersey first started buying land for this future park in 1938.

Bobcats are an elusive endangered species in New Jersey that are seldom seen in the wild. Late February through early April is the breeding season for these secretive felines, recognized by their bobbed tail, ear tufts and grayish-brown streaked and spotted fur. Typical bobcat habitat in New Jersey consists of forests, early successional vegetation and agricultural areas with dense cover that provides protection from the weather and from predators. Bobcats often use areas with caves, ledges and rock outcrops that pro- vide shelter and cover both for hunting and rearing their young. Bobcats are found primarily in the north- ern counties of Morris, Passaic, Sussex and Warren, although unconfirmed reports have been received from the eastern, central and southern counties. This bobcat captured in New Jersey was outfitted with a satellite transmitter collar. The To help identify bobcat distribution and occurrence throughout the state, transmitter allows biologists to the ENSP is requesting help from sportsmen and sportswomen by reporting any monitor bobcat locations in order bobcat sighting using the Endangered and Threatened Wildlife Sighting Report Form available online at www.NJFishandWildlife.com/ensp/rprtform.htm. to determine habitat ranges.
