The icon key below identifies the types of resources included on the map. You can use the pop-out menu on the right of the map to peruse resources by type and use the "filter items" function to look for specific names. By clicking on the name in the menu, a dialog box will open on the map next to its icon. This has the name, address, and a brief description of the resource. If you click on its name, you will be taken to their website, which will open as a new tab on your browser. Resources without specific locations are listed below the map.

Newark History Society
The Newark History Society aims to expand knowledge of Newarks past so that we may better understand the City’s present and future prospects. Settled by Puritans in 1666, Newark has a rich and textured history as one of Americas great cities. Its legacy of urban development, decay, and rebirth includes industrial innovation, outstanding contributions to the arts and literature, religious and ethnic diversity, political controversy, and the assimilation of immigrant and migrant groups. Founded in 2002, the Newark History Society organizes regular public programs and encourages new research. Most of our events are held at the New Jersey Historical Society or the Newark Public Library; they are free and open to the public.
