History and description
In 1877, Scottish immigrant John MacCullough, a wealthy wool-industry businessman, built a two-story fieldstone house in the manor of a castle, with two octagonal turrets. In 1902, it was purchased by Jennie Tuttle Hobart, widow of the former vice president Garret Hobart and became the weekend retreat and summer residence of the family. In 1915, their son Garret Hobart Jr. added a three-story brick wing, designed by Paterson architects Fred Wesley Wentworth and Frederick Vreeland. In 1948, the state acquired the property for use as the Paterson State Teachers College, now William Paterson University.[1] Today the building is known as Hobart Manor and houses the university's Office of the President and Office of Institutional Advancement.[2]
