Mai ka makahiki 1877 ua nānā kēia halepule nani i kahi ʻāpana kihi i koho ʻia Wantage, NJ. Ma ka ʻeka 1.06-ʻeka e kahe ana ke kahawai ʻōpuʻu ma ka waiwai. ʻO ke alahaka hele wāwae he ʻelua iwilei, kūpono no ka pīkino, ka noʻonoʻo ʻana, a i ʻole ka māla. Ua paʻa kekahi hapa o ka pā. He koʻikoʻi ko ka halepule ma ke kaiāulu. Ua kaulana a mahalo ʻia ʻo ia.

I loko, hiki ke leʻaleʻa ʻia nā kaupaku kiʻekiʻe a me nā hiʻohiʻona hoʻolālā, i loaʻa iā ʻoe i loko o kahi hale pule wale nō, ma ke ʻano he papahele hāmama a i ʻole e ʻoki maʻalahi i nā wahi liʻiliʻi.

Hoʻopili ʻia ka Zoning i nā ʻano hoʻohana pāʻoihana a i ʻole hiki i ka halepule ke hui ʻoluʻolu o nā mea ʻelua.

Aia ʻelua mau mile ma ka hema o High Point State Park, hāʻawi kēia wahi i nā leʻaleʻa a me ke ʻano. He kūpono loa ia no kahi ʻoihana pili i ke ʻano. Loaʻa i kahi wahi kaʻa kaʻa i ke ala pololei.

Ua malama pono ia ka waiwai a ke kuai ia nei. ʻO ka home, ke keʻena, studio, hale kūʻai kūʻai, hiki iā ʻoe ke hana hou i kēia hale pule kahiko nani e kūpono i kāu mau moeʻuhane.
