New Bridge Landing NJ, from the Bergen County Historical Society , “Been to the Palisades lately? We’re excited for the completion of a project over 40 years in the making! Kudos to the Palisades Interstate Park for being a fantastic partner. Future generations will be able to learn about Bergen County’s rich history in one of the storied places it was made. A classic BCHS blue marker denotes the initial landing of #British troops, while a new interpretive panel tells more of the story, linking historic sites connected to the story in the process! Thank you again to all those involved, looking forward to a fantastic 2020! ”

  1. I thought the Brittish Invasion was in the 1960s….

  2. Ha, Anonymous, was going to ask where are the Beatles and Stones on that plaque!!

  3. Very proud of my big brother James Purcell for his great work in getting this approved by the Palisades Interstate Parkway authorities. Richard Purcell
