Secrets of Llewellyn Park

This is the full length documentary Secrets of Llewellyn Park, the story of America's oldest planned community. Founded in 1857 as a Utopian enclave, the Park today is home to 150 families who enjoy its beauty and privacy, just 12 miles from Manhattan.

It's nice to learn about what is behind the house I grew up in. Thanks. I would like to learn more

My mother grew up in the park (Caroline VonHessert Hodge) and I spent time there with my grand parents when I was very young. My mother loves to tell stories about exploring the park with her friends. Such a beautiful place, like a fairy tale.

Only the most important people may be buried in their back yard. For a while, Edison was in a mausoleum in Rosedale Cemetery in Orange before being moved to his home.

I once looked at a house in Llewellyn Park about 10 years ago. The place was so beautiful and I wondered about its history but couldn't find a lot of information on the park. This video is great I couldn't stop watching it.

I lived and went to school in west orange nj and went to school with several lewellyn park residents..i wont mention any celebrity names but ive been up there twice in my life and it is certainly beutiful...lewellyn park is separate from west orange by zip code

[@user-fs5lc2dl7t]

love the gatekeeper turkeys who take their duties very seriously...I've always wondered if I became wealthy what location would become my "dream"...and I think now I can say that if I had the means...I would move to Llewellyn Park immediately...even if it is in NJ. Thank you for this lovely video.
