******** Update

I will be offering short tours of the Boonton Falls and Gorge and also the Stone Arch Bridge. These are “must sees” if you are in Boonton.

The Boonton Falls

Awesome in its beauty and power, the presence of the falls is the very reason the town came into being. Paralleling Main St. 80 yards beyond its stone wall is the 25’ drop in the Rockaway River that creates the Boonton Falls. When the planners of the Morris Canal routed the eastern half of that vital channel of transport along the Rockaway River, the water power generated by the falls and the steep gorge through which the river races became motivation for the New York Iron Co. to build New Jersey’s first iron foundry here. From the foundry’s employees came growth in the area’s population and the ultimate founding of a municipality in 1867.

The Stone Arch Bridge

Even before Boonton had established its identity as a town, while yet a part of Pequannock and Hanover Townships, in 1860 the nationally-known Harper’s Weekly, with a circulation of 200,000, declared: "The village of Boonton is beautifully situated — so far as charming prospect is concerned — upon the almost precipitous face of a bluff, which forms one of the sides of a deep ravine through which the Rockaway River empties its waters into the plain below.” 160 years later, the chief architectural feature of that magnificent gorge can be appreciated while experiencing the still-powerful cascading river.

If you interested in taking these sites in, please reach out to me. We could meet at the Gazebo in Grace Lord Park
