Creating Opportunities With Our New National Park

NJCDC has endeavored to create the Paterson Great Falls National Historical Park by strengthening Paterson’s economic base and improving the quality of life for the city’s current and future residents.  NJCDC has long recognized that the establishment of the National Park as a desirable end in itself but; much more important, NJCDC sees the opportunity to obtain funding, gain public attention and foster professional expertise that will accompany the creation of the Park in cooperation with new private sector business opportunities which will ultimately help Paterson residents.
