Welcome! This is a virus free website, Ok to Allow Blocked Content and run Active XWelcome to the Friends of Thomas Edison National Historic Park
(NHP). Much like the
renovations recently completed at Thomas Edison NHP in West Orange NJ, this web site is a work in
process. We hope to provide some particularly unique insight
into the new developments at the Edison Laboratories in
West Orange NJ and the nearby Edison Home in Glenmont.
Please spend some time looking around. Be sure to see the on-line video presentations that give an introduction to the fabulous Thomas Edison National Historic Park properties. This is the next best thing to being there and something you'll want to see if you're planning on visiting the Thomas Edison NHP soon. The photos show some of what has already been accomplished particularly at the Edison Home in Glenmont (now open) and you'll see the upgrades and improvements completed in the Labs (also now open).
The Friends of the Thomas Edison NHP have already accomplished so much with the archiving, cataloging, preserving the buildings, original material and items located at the Site. But much more works needs to be done and you can participate in helping preserve this extraordinary history.
