Paterson Through Time

by Marcia Dente

Overview

Paterson was the gem in the crown of the American Industrial Revolution. The shadow of Paterson's past can still be seen in the remnants of the silk mills and dye houses; the grand architecture of the downtown and Eastside sections. The industry is long gone, but the history remains. The skyline of steeples and smokestacks not only frame its past but the extended landscape.
