  • (en) Marc Myers, « Palisades Park: Just A Memory », New York Times,‎ (lire en ligne, consulté le ) :

    « The park was opened in 1898 by the Bergen Traction Company, a trolley line hoping to attract evening and weekend riders by featuring the park as the carrier's terminus. The park overlooked the Hudson River, straddling what is now Cliffside Park and Fort Lee. Between 1908 and 1909, it introduced a crude potpourri of diversions, including a Ferris wheel, a baby parade and diving horses. In 1910, the Realty Trust Company purchased the property, promising that the park would be devoted to families, ladies and children ... a perfectly safe and sane place to visit. ... Winston Towers, two 31-story apartment buildings, were the first structures on Cliffside Park's 21-acre part of the former amusement site. Currently, 155 town houses are being built on Fort Lee's 15-acre share of the property. »
