With Dorothy Kelly, Curator of the Millburn-Short Hills Historical
Society Museum
While
discussions about Short Hills have primarily focused on Stewart Hartshorn and
his suburban ideals, the broader history of the town has been largely
overlooked. Join our local expert for an illuminating exploration of Old Short
Hills, examining the strategic significance of the area during the
Revolutionary Period, its role as a site for burgeoning industry, and its
transformation into a coveted residential locale that attracted notable
individuals, including Edward Renwick, John Taylor, and Joseph P. Day.
