About Highland Park, New Jersey

Highland Park is a borough of 15,072 people in Middlesex County, on the north bank of the Raritan River facing New Brunswick. The Lenape hunted these hills first, and their trails crossed the area. In 1685 John Inian bought land on both banks and started a ferry, and the main road was turned to run straight to his landing. A toll bridge took the ferry's place in 1795, and the seven-span stone arch bridge built in 1892 became the Lincoln Highway Bridge in 1914.

The land stayed in farms long after the canal and railroad came, and the name Highland Park grew out of a housing development in the 1870s. In 1870 the hamlet was annexed to the new Raritan Township, now Edison. Residents wanted their own school system and quarreled over school taxes, and the fire department, formed in 1899, wanted more say over its own affairs. The legislature made Highland Park a borough on March 15, 1905, and that year's state census counted 147 dwellings.

  • The Livingston HomesteadIn 1809 the Reverend John Henry Livingston, newly chosen to lead Queen's College, the school that became Rutgers University, bought a 150-acre tract here that came to be called Livingston Manor. Robert and Louisa Livingston built a Greek Revival house on it around 1843. The Waldron family owned it for most of the 20th century, and it is on the National Register of Historic Places.
  • The Lord of the ManorWatson Whittlesey, a developer from Rochester, New York, began building on the Livingston lands in 1906, selling lots with a house his company had built or promised to build. The first deeds changed hands on December 1, 1906. There were sixty-two houses by 1910 and 120 by 1913. Whittlesey threw receptions for residents and built playgrounds for their children, and after he died on April 8, 1914, hundreds came to his memorial service.
  • Birthplace of the Band-AidOver the 19th and 20th centuries, local industry ran from a brewery and the Waldron machine works to Turner Tubes, a wallpaper factory run by Janeway & Carpender, and Johnson & Johnson, and the Band-Aid was born here. Robert Wood Johnson II, whose summer estate stood on River Road, joined the borough council in 1918 and became mayor in 1920. By the 1960s the borough's industry was gone.
  • East New Brunswick stationA railroad line reached this side of the river in 1836 and ended at a station named East New Brunswick. A double-deck wooden bridge built by the Camden and Amboy Railroad in 1838 carried trains across and ended the stop. That bridge burned in a suspicious fire in 1878, and the stone arch bridge that still stands replaced its iron successor in 1902.
  • New Jersey firstsIn 2012 Highland Park became the first town in the state to hire a home performance company to help residents use less energy, offering homeowners savings of up to 30%. In 2016 it became New Jersey's first registered HeartSafe community.
