Jardín de Iris conmemorativo de Frank Presby

El Jardín de Iris conmemorativo de Frank Presby (en inglés: Presby Memorial Iris Gardens también conocido como Presby Memorial Iris Gardens Horticultural Center) es un jardín botánico especializado en Iris de 7.8 acres (3.2 hectáreas), que está administrado por una organización sin ánimo de lucro de voluntarios. Junto a los jardines se encuentra una mansión victoriana, la Walther House. La casa está abierta al público, aunque con horario limitado. En su interior se encuentra la tienda del museo y la sede del Comité de Ciudadanos que supervisa los jardines. Se encuentra en el Essex County, en Montclair, Nueva Jersey, Estados Unidos. Historia Después de los problemas financieros en 2008 y 2009, la propiedad de los jardines fue transferida al condado de Essex, que compró la casa Walther en 1,1 millones de dólares con el fin de dar a los jardines una posición financiera mejor. El condado arrendó los jardines de nuevo a la "Presby Memorial Iris Gardens" por la cantidad simbólica de $ 1. Mientras que el Condado de Essex posee la propiedad, los lechos de cultivo de iris se mantienen sin fondos de los contribuyentes. Más bien, se mantienen por donaciones privadas y el esfuerzo de voluntarios.​ Descripción Los jardines están en un entorno de parque y abiertos al público sin costo alguno. Las donaciones, sin embargo, son muy apreciadas. Cada año los jardines Presby cuentan con más de 10.000 visitantes. Normalmente, la temporada de floración es del 14 de mayo al 4 de junio. Los jardines fueron creados en 1927 para honrar a Frank Presby, un conocido horticultor y miembro fundador de la American Iris Society. Esta colección de rango mundial ahora incluye aproximadamente 10.000 plantas individuales, lo que representa 6 especies y más de 3000 diferentes variedades cultivares de iris. Es el jardín no comercial más grande dedicada al iris del mundo. Vandalismo En agosto de 2005, 157 de los rizomas eran vandalizados. Un año más tarde, la Policía Montclair avisó a los culpables que más tarde fueron detenidos y condenados. Los tres hombres, menores de edad en el momento, habían aporreado las plantas practicando tiros de golf, en estado de ebriedad.​ En 2008, se intentó el robo en algunos lirios, arrancando los rizomas y colocándolos en una bolsa de plástico para su transporte, pero se recuperaron.

President's House (Princeton University)

The President's House, also known as the John Maclean House, or simply the Maclean House, in Princeton, Mercer County, New Jersey, United States, was built to serve as the home of the President of the College of New Jersey, which later became Princeton University. It was completed in 1756, the same year as Nassau Hall. United States Founding Father John Witherspoon lived here from 1768 through 1779, during which time he served as a delegate to the Continental Congress and signed the Declaration of Independence. George Washington occupied Maclean House in January 1777, during the Battle of Princeton and in 1783 while Congress met in Nassau Hall. It now serves as the home of the Alumni Association of Princeton University and houses over 20 staff, hosts many alumni functions and showcases Princeton memorabilia and a library of Princetoniana. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1971. Slavery at the President's House At least five Princeton presidents who occupied the President's House between 1756 and 1822 owned slaves who lived and worked in the house. These presidents included Aaron Burr Sr., Jonathan Edwards, Samuel Finley, Samuel Stanhope Smith, and Ashbel Green. Slaves lived in the quarters on the second floor of the detached "Kitchen House" to the rear of the main building. After his death in 1766, Samuel Finley's personal property was auctioned off at the President's House. Advertisements for the estate sale described "two negro women, a negro man, and three Negro children" to be sold alongside livestock, furniture, and books. In 2017, the Princeton University Art Museum, in collaboration with the Princeton & Slavery Project, commissioned American artist Titus Kaphar to create a public art piece in front of the President's House. His sculpture Impressions of Liberty, unveiled in November 2017, depicts the face of Samuel Finley in relief, along with the figures of enslaved people sold at the house after his death. The President's House is the first stop on the Stories of African American Life at Princeton walking tour. The house also appears on the Princeton University Art Museum's mobile tour of Art and Slavery at Princeton.

Princeton Airport (New Jersey)

Princeton Airport (IATA: PCT, FAA LID: 39N) is a public-use airport in Montgomery, Somerset County, New Jersey, three miles (5 km) north of Princeton and just west of Rocky Hill. The airport is privately owned by Princeton Aero Corp. The airport houses the Princeton Flying School, Elite Flight Experience/Cirrus Training Center, Pacific Aircraft, Analar Helicopter Charter and Platinum Helicopters. History The airport was established by Richard A. Newhouse (original spelling Neuhaus). Among his other aviation-related projects, in 1911 he built a plane of his own design, featuring separate floating ailerons — a major innovation, as the planes of that time used wing warping for roll control. The paved runway opened about 1965, and the airport has since had occasional commuter airline flights— e.g. in 1979, Princeton Airways was operating fifteen scheduled passenger flights to Newark each weekday with Britten-Norman Islander STOL capable aircraft. Princeton Airways also flew scheduled passenger service from the airport with the GAF Nomad STOL capable turboprop. On March 29, 1985, the airport was purchased by Princeton Aero Corp. Principals of the company are members of the Nierenberg family, previously the fixed-base operator at Kupper Airport for eighteen years. Princeton Flying School (formerly Raritan Valley Flying School) operates a Part 61 FAA-approved flight school at the airport. Facilities Princeton Airport covers 100 acres (40 ha) and has one paved runway (10/28), 3,499 x 75 ft (1,066 x 23 m). In the year ending October 23, 2020, the airport had 39,421 aircraft operations, average 108 per day: 88% general aviation and 13% air taxi. 32 aircraft were then based at the airport: 27 single engine, 1 multi-engine and 4 helicopters. Notable alumni In 1991, Avril Haines, who served as the Director of National Intelligence from 2021 to 2025, took up lessons at Princeton Flying School where she met her future husband, David Davighi. Haines completed her first private pilot solo flight at Princeton Flying School.

Princeton Friends School

Princeton Friends School (PFS) is an independent Quaker day pre-Kindergarten-8th grade school in Princeton, New Jersey. It is under the care of Princeton Monthly Meeting and located on the Meeting's historic Stony Brook Meeting House and Cemetery property, adjacent to both the Institute for Advanced Study Woods and the Princeton Battlefield. The school is governed by a board of trustees that includes members of the Religious Society of Friends, attenders of the Princeton Monthly Meeting, parents of students in the school, and members of the broader Princeton community. History PFS History: "In 1781, a small school was opened in what we now call the Administration Building, on the 10-acre grounds of the Princeton Monthly Meeting. Contrary to the times, the little Quaker school was open to all, and students included children of slaves and Native Americans. A larger one-room schoolhouse, adjacent to the Meetinghouse, was built in 1800 and served the community for decades. After it fell into disrepair, the old schoolhouse was dismantled around 1900. Almost 100 years later, Princeton Friends School was founded in 1987 by a small group of educators inspired by the ideals of both Friends education and progressive education. Renting space from Princeton Monthly Meeting, and later coming “under the care of” that meeting, the school opened with 19 students in 1st through 7th grades, two full-time teachers (Head of School Jane Fremon and Gale Whittier), and two part-time teachers (Assistant Head Nancy Wilson and PFS math teacher and advisor Richard Fischer). As the school gradually expanded over the following years, Princeton Monthly Meeting gave permission for the construction of a permanent home – the Schoolhouse – on the property. In September 1997 the Schoolhouse opened its doors, providing for the school a central library, a large assembly space, faculty office space, and six classrooms. Portable classrooms in trailers that had for several years graced what is known as the school's “back circle” were retired, and Princeton Friends School now had the space to serve its enrollment of 125 students. Ten years later, West House, with its two primary classrooms, two science labs, a Learning Center, an art room, and a nurse's office, opened its doors in September 2008. An outdoor hard-surface play court, an expanded playground, and a pair of outbuildings were also included in this project. " As of 2024, the interim headmaster is Craig Sellers. There is a search for a permanent head of school. External links Princeton Friends School web site Pictures of the Schoolhouse
Princeton Public Library

The Princeton Public Library serves the town of Princeton, New Jersey. It is the most visited municipal public library in New Jersey with over 860,000 annual visitors who borrow 550,000 items, ask more than 83,000 reference questions, log onto library computers over 90,000 times, and attend more than 1,300 programs. Its usage exceeds all but five of New Jersey's twenty-one county systems. Compared to New Jersey's largest municipal library, Newark, Princeton spends four times as much per capita, and has nearly double the number of visitors and circulation in absolute terms despite a tenth the population. History Bainbridge House The town of Princeton's first purpose built libraries, among the first in the country, were those of the Princeton Theological Seminary, Lenox Library (1843), and Princeton University, Chancellor Green Library (1873). The town itself however would not have a library to call its own until the twentieth century. The Princeton Public Library opened in 1909, and has had three different homes. The library was originally located at the historic Bainbridge House on Nassau Street, which is the current home of the Princeton Historical Society. Bainbridge house had been built in 1766 by Job Stockton and was the birthplace of naval hero William Bainbridge. The house came into the ownership of Princeton University, which rented it to the library for $1 a year. Witherspoon Street The growing library moved in 1966 to a building at 65 Witherspoon Street. By 2002 the library had a collection of 130,000 books in a building designed for 80,000 and the decision was made to build a new home for the library on the same site. The library was then moved to a temporary location at 301 North Harrison Street during the construction of the new 58,000-square-foot (5,400 m2), state-of-the-art library which was opened at 65 Witherspoon Street in April 2004. The new building and the library's new logos and signage were designed by Hillier Architecture. The building is named for George and Estelle Sands, who made a $5 million donation, with half going to provide an endowment. The J. Seward Johnson Charitable Trust donated $1 million and the university $400,000. The total cost of the new building was $18 million with two-thirds of that raised from private donations, $4 million from Princeton Township, and $2 million from Princeton Borough.

Prospect House (Princeton, New Jersey)

Prospect House, known also as just Prospect, is a historic house on the Princeton University campus in Princeton, New Jersey, United States. Built in 1851, it is a fine example of the work of architect John Notman who helped popularize Italianate architecture in America. Notable residents include Woodrow Wilson during his tenure as president of the university. The building now serves as a faculty club. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1985 for its architecture and historic associations. Description and history Prospect House stands on the Princeton University campus, between the Princeton University Art Museum and Washington Street. It stands on 5 acres (2.0 ha) of landscaped grounds that are a remnant of a once-larger estate. The house is a two-story stone structure, built out of rustically cut sandstone, with a three-story tower at one end, and a single-story service wing. The roofs are low-pitch hip roofs, with broad eaves decorated with brackets. The main facade has a central stone porte-cochere topped by a balustrade. Flanking this are slightly projecting bays, featuring matching second-story balconies. A modern dining room addition, designed by Warren Platner, extends to the rear. Prospect House was built in 1851-52 for Thomas Fuller Potter. Prior to its construction, the site had been that of a farm whose house had hosted George Washington both during and after the American Revolutionary War. The new house was designed by John Notman, a Scottish architect based in Philadelphia who is credited with introducing the Italianate style of architecture to the United States. In 1878, it was acquired by brothers Alexander and Robert Stuart, who gave it to the College of New Jersey, which became Princeton University and served as the house of the school president. Woodrow Wilson, the third Princeton president to live here, was resident from 1902 to 1911, when he became Governor of New Jersey en route to becoming President of the United States. On February 10, 1913, Thomas J. Preston Jr., a professor of archeology at Princeton University, married Frances Folsom Cleveland, the widow of President Grover Cleveland at Prospect House. In 1968, the president's official residence was moved to another house, and Prospect House was adapted for use as a private clubhouse for the university faculty. It was designated a U.S. National Historic Landmark in 1985.

Prospertown Lake

Prospertown Lake is a man-made lake and wildlife management area, located on Monmouth Road (CR 537) in the Prospertown section of Jackson, New Jersey, adjacent to Six Flags Great Adventure. In September 2011, a 27-year-old metal gate water control structure for an earthen dam on the west side of the lake gave way after Hurricane Irene and other storms struck the area. This caused the lake to drain and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection promptly relocated thousands of fish to another body of water nearby. The structure was repaired and the lake refilled and restocked with fish by March 2013. The lake is normally 14 feet (4.3 m) deep. References
Daniel Robert House

The Daniel Robert House is a historic house located at 25 West End Avenue in the borough of Somerville in Somerset County, New Jersey. The house was built in 1888 for Daniel Robert (1840–1908) by the architectural firm Lambert & Bunnell based on Gothic Revival style houses designed by the architect Alexander Jackson Davis.

Queen's Bridge (New Jersey)

The Queen's Bridge is a bridge spanning the Raritan River that connects South Bound Brook and Bound Brook, both of which are in Somerset County, New Jersey. The bridge carries South Main Street across the river. History The earliest Queen's Bridge was completed in 1731, ordered by an act of the colonial government in 1728. It was likely named after Queen Caroline, wife of King George II. Another early bridge at this site was a wooden one built in 1767. Later, in 1771, an act was passed that provided for the maintenance of the bridge as the Queen's Bridge. Over a hundred years later, a class steel pipe truss bridge was built at the site in 1875 to replace the previous one. The current bridge's span was built in 1984. References
