i live in little falls:C
that was so cool.
Just read “Nightshade”. Loved it. I grew up in Chatham NJ and spent the majority of my childhood along these banks. I also grew up with Jimmy “Mad Hatter” Madison and Terry Wells. Your description of the events surrounding that horrible tragedy are spot on. I also appreciate the photo on p. 77. My friends and I were the ones that shot the locks off of this and several other pump houses along this stretch. Evidently this area remains a “weapons free” zone. Keep your head down! Carry on. MOOSE.
I was in this educational summer program at Rutgers Newark and we went to this Hydro-Electricity dam (not sure of the name) and we got to hear stories of how bad the Passaic really was,the bus driver said he remembered when it was so bad that the river was like a red color, and there was practically no fish because of the pollution. It was a great lesson and i can tell how passionate you are about this river, so good look on your future journeys!!
The river in Little Falls was insane! Wow…

I now live in Lancaster Pa. but grew uo in Paterson in the early 1930′s till 1988 when I moved to Pa. To think I viewed this site many times…and once dove in the chazum beneath the falls. Of course it was in the dry spell of the summer when no water was coming over the falls. It was creapy diving in that black deep water beneath the falls. I only dove in because of my older friend…threatening to throw me in. This Video brings back alot of memories.
thats crazy, what a site to see
Wheeler. This video facinated me… I’ve now gone back and watched your other videos and am obsessed with the Passaic River, which I grew up near as a kid (Little Falls). Great stuff.
Great footage—you are an intrepid moviemaker! Glad you didn’t slip into the river from that slippery aqueduct!
The thing about this, is that ever since Christie became Gov. this has been happening. Just as his belt overflows, the rivers and streams take their que from the leader of the State. Under Corzine, the waters were kept back by the NJEA. Who always were out there with pontoons. Christie has now thrown those selfless people out of work, to let the water do it’s evil deeds.
thanks man

Your videos are excellent
Great footage and commentary. Former residents from Passaic River area appreciate your good work.

In 1935, My Father ran for Passaic County Alderman. One of his five points was a promise to clean up the Passaic River. He lost. Wouldn’t it have been nice if they started then?
