Condition History
The mansion was occupied by the Krueger family from its construction until the end of WWI. In 1925, it was sold to a construction company and it was used as a lodge hall by the Valley of Newark, Scottish Rite until 1958. During this time, an auditorium and lunchroom were added.
In 1958, the mansion was bought by Louise Scott, Newark’s first African-American millionaire. In the 1960s, the exterior brick was replaced. In 1982, the city of Newark acquired the building through foreclosure and by 1990 developed a plan to restore the building. However, by the late 1990's, the building closed due to lack of funding. The mansion remains vacant and on the list of most threatened historic buildings.

Description
An account of the resource
The 26-room Krueger Mansion was built in 1889 by Gottfried Krueger, the founder of Krueger Brewing Company, and later judge of the New Jersey Court of Errors and Appeals. Situated at the corner of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard and Court Street in Newark’s Central Ward, this mansion represents the quintessential residence of the German “Beer Barons” of Newark and their display of wealth through architecture.
The exterior is dominated by dark red brick and brownstone trim. Elements of classical architecture such as pedimented-windows, quoined corners, pilasters and columns of classical orders mix with northern medieval elements. A circular turret with conical roof rises five stories, with the top surrounded by an open balcony with metal grillwork railing. Expansive porches wrap the two sides of the building and extend to a coachman’s canopy on the side. The building is crowned by a majestic slate-covered mansard roof with numerous dormers and chimneys.
Henry Schultz designed the interiors in Louis XVI and Louis XIV styles, “High Victorian” eclectic style and Baroque. The dining room was finished in oak and embossed leather, the library in cherry and morocco, while the upper-floor sitting rooms in rosewood and inlaid pearl. Overall, the hand-carved wainscoting, oak parquet floors, and frescoed ceilings demonstrate the craftsmanship of the Italian masters that worked here. Glass is prominent in the mansion: a glass dome is located at the intersection of two corridors, while most windows are crowned with stained glass panels. An elevator and a pipe organ were installed in the mansion.

Condition History
In the 19th century, the neighborhood of Woodside was flourishing and had become a prime real estate location appealing to Newark's wealthy class. The Mutual Benefit Life had its headquarters in this area before relocating in 1926 to Broadway. Later as the neighborhood deteriorated, the North Broad Street Historic District houses suffered from the general disinvestment. Fire damaged completely the interior of all the rowhouses, except for one, while the facades were preserved intact. Efforts were later made to renovate these houses and turn them into low income housing.

Description
An account of the resource
The North Broad Street Historic District consists of an urban residential neighborhood of eight rowhouses located in the North Ward of Newark. Seven of these rowhouses were built in the Renaissance Revival style and dressed with limestone while the last on the northern corner was built in the Queen Anne style with brownstone. This housing complex was constructed by the George Brown and Company, one of the most important firms in Newark concentrating in stone cutting and products. The street facade maintains a tripartite division of base, body and attic. The houses are three stories tall and are fronted by a brownstone porch with steps leading to individual entrances for each block. These stairs are separated by planted beds framed by brownstone retaining walls. The limestone-facade houses display an elegant image articulated by the rusticated ground floor, bare friezes and cornices that create a horizontal linear continuity across the blocks and enforce their unity. Some of these blocks stand out for their semi-hexagonal oriel windows and Michelangesque windows of scrolled bracket-supported pediments and bracket-supported sills. The bronwnstone corner house has a round bay culminating in a slate-covered conical roof. All these rowhouses, with their fine architectural detailing, contribute to the historical significance of this neighborhood.

Condition History
The house was built for newlyweds John and Susannah Sydenham around 1711. The house was expanded in 1836, with renovations done to the back portion, and the section's roof being raised. The house remained in the possession of the Sydenham family for 200 years and it was sold in 1954. Dorland and Elizabeth Henderson, owners of the house beginning in 1954, worked on the authentic restoration of the house. The Hendersons gifted the house to the Newark Museum in the late 1990's, but the museum declined because of the cost of upkeep. More renovations on the interior have been executed by present private owners to reflect contemporary living standards.

Condition History
This house was originally a rectory for Trinity church. Reverend Matthew H. Henderson lived in this house for nearly 48 years, until 1865. When the house was bought by the Symington family in 1888, they began remodeling the interior, and built additions. Symington House was one of the many mansions lining the north side of Military Park in the early 1800s. With the development of downtown Newark, most of these mansions were demolished with the exception of Symington House and Ballantine House, the latter fronting Washington Park. In 1965, the house was purchased by the Continental Insurance Company. They allowed the Newark Tercentennial Committee to use the building as its headquarters for the city's 300th anniversary. At this time, restoration was done on the building.

Description
An account of the resource
The Feigenspan Mansion was the home of Christian Feigenspan, a brewery owner who manufactured the "Pride of Newark" beer. Feigenspan became famous for winning the silver medal at the 1891 Paris Exhibition. The mansion is also noted for being built to accommodate Christian's wife, Marie, who used a wheelchair. As a result, it is one of the prime examples of accessible design in high-end residential living.
This house was designed by Warringon G. Lawrence in 1905 who adopted the Second Renaissance Revival style. This thirty-seven-room mansion is a three story structure with three bays in the front façade and five bays on the side elevations. The materials used on the exterior are Roman brick and sandstone trims for the quonining, watertable, and moldings. The central bay on the front façade has an entrance arch with an aedicule framed by free-standing Tuscan columns. The aedicule is surmounted by a balustrated parapet around a baroque window with a broken pediment and side scrolls. The side windows on the first floor also have balustrated balconies and are capped with cornice caps. On the back, a glazed-in area serves as a palm-room.
It is important to note that this mansion is an early example of universal (barrier-free) design. A centrally-located elevator facilitated access to the most important areas of the house, while the bathroom shower stall enabled sitting.

Condition History
This house was commissioned as a residence to John Ballantine in 1884. Following his death in 1895, his family remained in the house until 1920, when they sold it to the Continental Insurance Company. The Newark Museum of Art, that had acquired the house in 1937, carried out a substantial restoration in 1976 and opened the house to the public. Today, the house serves as a wing of the museum and its rooms host various exhibitions.
The Ballantine House has been preserved virtually intact except for interior decorations initiated by the Ballantine family who employed the services of D.S. Hess, and consequently of Roux and Company.

Description
An account of the resource
The Ballantine House is the only remaining 19th century town house in Washington Square. It was built to be a seventeen-room, three-story structure with a full basement and attic. This house was built in 1884 as a residence for John H. Ballantine, owner of the famous Ballantine Brewery.
Ballantine commissioned New York-based architect, George Edward Harney, to design a luxurious residence in the Romanesque revival style. Harney is noted for designing, among other buildings, the William Roebling House in Trenton.
The exterior main façade consists of a three-bay organization with a central trefoil arch porch entrance defined by four polished granite columns with Corinthian capitals. The exterior has been finished in Philadelphia pressed red-brick in common bond and Wyoming sandstone used in trims and belt courses. Carved floral and foliate designs crown the first floor bay window and porch. A modified mansard roof with gabled dormers tops the three-story structure.
The interior recreates the Victorian Age in its opulent woodwork supplied by the Kirk and Jacobus firm who supplied the finest cherry, ash, maple, and mahogany. From a historical perspective, we have a detailed documentation of construction and furnishing costs, architectural plans and specifications for this house.

Condition History
The house was originally built for the family of James J. Dickerson, a leather manufacturer. James A. Coe purchased the house in 1886. The Coe family owned the James A. Coe & Company, the leading merchants of steel and hardware in Newark. In the early 20th century, the open two-story porch around the southeast corner of the house was enclosed to accommodate a billiard room and summer bedrooms. James Coe died in 1933 and his family continued to occupy the house until 1947, when it was sold to Benjamin Kulper. The house has continued to function as a residence with the exception of a period of 20 years when it was owned by a social service agency that did not occupy the premises.

Description
An account of the resource
The Glencoe Mansion is located on the easterly side of Martin Luther King Boulevard, formerly known as High Street. High Street was one of the most prominent locations of Newark with high end residential buildings occupied by affluent families. The Glencoe Mansion is a three-story brick building and it was designed in the High Victorian Italianate Style. As such, it has been highly decorated both inside and out. On the main façade (west), there are three bays articulated beautifully with architectural elements. Floor divisions are expressed by horizontal brick belt coursing separating tall windows and door openings, mostly topped with segmental-arch lintels. The third floor has a reduced height that accentuates the building mass when viewed from below. The symmetry of the façade is broken by the northernmost bay projecting forward and capped by a gable roof. In this bay there is variety from the first floor’s box bay to the bracket supported hooded lintel on the second floor, culminating in the paired round-arched windows on the third floor. The main entrance is part of a lavishly ornamented wooden open porch. The other façades, with the exception of the south elevation, are not as articulate and ornamented. On the interior, this mansion demonstrates the same attention to ornamentation with plaster walls and ceilings, crown moldings, medallions for lighting fixtures, wood parquet floors, and bronze hardware.
A Carriage House is located at the rear of the property.
