The Eastside Neighborhood Association is hosting its annual historic house and garden tour on Sunday, May 3.
Visitors will tour opulent mansions that once sheltered the city’s prominent and wealthy residents. They will also see an award winning garden, a landscaped garden with statutory, and a flower herb box garden. The self-guided tour will feature a variety of homes with varying architectural styles and designs.

The event will also feature a tour of the Historic Eastside Park. The Paterson Historic Preservation Commission will discuss the city’s park movement at 1 p.m., before conducting a tour of the historic park at 1:30 p.m.
Visitors will also get a chance to see the City Green Farm near the White House. At the park the Paterson Chapter of the Blue Knights International Enforcement Motorcycle Club will display their motorcycles.
