First Friday: Millionaires Row on the Palisades: A Glimpse of the Gilded “Edge”

Presented by Eric Nelsen from the Palisades Interstate Park in New Jersey.

Artists, captains of industry, showmen — all were among the men and women who, from the time of the Civil War through the Great Depression, had unique and often lavish homes built upon the precipices of the New Jersey Palisades. Using newly discovered letters and diaries they have transcribed from the Miles family, our public historians bring the story of the grand estates — and the families and servants who lived at them — into vibrant focus.
