The dam they talk about was called the Tock's island dam. The village is empty but hardly abandoned. Up keep of all the buildings continues to this day. And those signs are not a joke. That area is under surveillance and if you mess with the buildings you will be arrested
Must be, in 'beautiful' North Jersey😝. I live in South Jersey, and that's NOWHERES, 'round here (we ain't got, no dumb mountains/hills). That thing that you wasn't sure, what it was, is an old-school, gasoline pump. So, if the government backed out, of building the dam; why didn't the residents move back in (that, wasn't mentioned)???
My friend crashed his car late at night here while we were mobbing and the rangers that patrol the town came and helped us out and in one of the memorial buildings the doors were open and windows and there was a red light just fading in and out with a silhouette just eating soup or something like that. One of the most bone rattling sights ive ever seen. Edit: The rangers know these buildings are haunted. They know about the lights inside, the silhouettes, the ghost stories, etc. They cant do anything about it so they turn a blind eye to it.
It’s not really “abandoned”. I live near there and hike and hunt the immediate area you are walking around. The whole valley was a result of the “Tocks” project. People still live there so please be respectful of the properties.

It's 7 people in that whole town relax
As it should be. I remember all the talk about Tock's Island back in the day but then nothing happened.

Eminent domain. They couldnt return.
Abandoned but appears to be well kept up. I guess a few people still live there. Looks like a nice place to visit.
It's not abandoned. It's part of a NJ state park.
Walpack twp is full of abandons. Great video
1:24 Old gas pump.
Good to know! Thank you
Municipal pump, used to fuel two old plow trucks. A Dodge Power Wagon and a International and 2 Fire Trucks, a old Mack and a FWD.
Interesting she didn't know what it was.
Neat trucks, all of them. @@359livinlarge6

Many where forced to leave with little compensation.
shame on the government for doing this to people
It never ends. Three years of Joe Biden that NJ voted for.

how its so clean
Because it's empty BUT not abandoned. It is a preserved village. That means the buildings are repaired/painted and kept in reasonable condition
