Gross Family Foundation donates $10K to support new museum at historic New Bridge Landing

The Bergen County Historical Society (BCHS) is thrilled to announce a generous $10,000 donation from the Gayle and Paul Gross Family Foundation. This significant contribution, presented by Roger Gross, president of NIA National Realty, will support the Society’s ongoing capital campaign to build a state-of-the-art history museum at Historic New Bridge Landing.

The donation underscores the foundation’s commitment to preserving and celebrating local history.

“The Gayle and Paul Gross Family Foundation is proud to support this vital project, which will not only preserve the rich heritage of Bergen County but also serve as a cornerstone for education and community engagement for generations to come,” Roger Gross said.

The new museum building will provide expanded exhibition space, modern facilities, and inter-active programming designed to showcase Bergen County’s unique history and the pivotal role of Historic New Bridge Landing in the American Revolution and beyond.

“We are deeply grateful to the Gayle and Paul Gross Family Foundation for their support of our vision,” BCHS President Beverly Hashimoto said. “This generous gift brings us closer to making the new museum a reality and preserving our shared history for future generations.”

The Bergen County Historical Society invites the public to join its efforts to create this remarkable new facility by contributing to the capital campaign. For more information on the campaign and ways to support it, please visit
