Crane House Museum

Montclair, New Jersey

Israel Crane (b. 1774) descended from one of Montclair's founding families and is remembered as a visionary merchant whose general store put a fledgling town on the map. Israel was only 22 in 1796 when he built what was thought to be an overly grand house for the time.
