Description:
"The Castle," a well-known landmark in Northern New Jersey, is located on Garret Mountain overlooking the City of Paterson. Once a private residence, the building is fashioned after an English castle. Catholina Lambert, an English immigrant who made his fortune in the silk industry, built the Castle in 1892-93. He named it "Belle Vista." Many prominent individuals of that era, including President McKinley, visited the Lambert family in their luxurious residence.
