Rosenkranz Farm

This farm in the Delaware Water Gap held out private ownership through the Tocks Island Dam project and later National Recreation Area seizures. The family which held this land since the 1600's sold to the NPS in 2017. The drive was also a ferry road. The barns were demolished in the 1970's. Later the family used the land as a campground business and an attempt was made to use the grounds as an outdoor music venue. Lighting remains from this. The ferry road is in this shot. The road is still marked as private. There is still mail in the mailbox with an angry wasp's nest.
