Hobart Manor, a national historic site, was constructed in 1877 by John McCullough, a Scottish immigrant who made his fortune in the wool industry. The property was purchased by the Hobarts in 1902 and used at first as a summer retreat. From 1915 to 1919 a major remodeling was undertaken and, with the addition of a three-story east wing, the Manor was expanded by 40 rooms. The Hobarts occupied the mansion until 1948 when Mrs. Garret Hobart Jr. (Caroline Frye) sold the entire estate to the State of New Jersey and it became the new home of Paterson State Teachers’ College, now William Paterson University. It is now home to the Offices of the President and Institutional Advancement. All state colleges will require that catering trucks have a fire suppression system installed in the truck in order to cater on campus. A fire extinguisher in the truck will not suffice.
