Paterson Great Falls National Historical Park – New Jersey

Images of Paterson Great Falls National Historical Park – Northern New Jersey, taken in May 2022.

Paterson Great Falls National Historical Park celebrates the work of Alexander Hamilton in establishing the nation’s first planned city of industry and innovation revolving around the power of the Passaic River and its showcase Great Falls.

Beyond the hydroelectric plant, manmade waterways known as ‘raceways’ were used to divert water to area plants and mills in the area. By the mid-1800s Paterson became the leading producer of locomotives and textiles and is the birthplace of the Colt Revolver.
