Wortendyke Homestead

History
Frederick Wortendyke, Jr. built the original sandstone section of this farmhouse in the 1750’s at “Pascack” on land purchased by his father in 1735, a tract that included nearly a third of present-day Park Ridge. The homestead was enlarged before 1775 and was further expanded and remodeled over the years. It remained in the Wortendyke family until 1851.
