Shipman Mansion
The Shipman Mansion Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich architectural, maritime, and cultural history of the Shipman Mansion in Edgewater Park, NJ. Built in 1869, this Second Empire style home is listed on the New Jersey and federal Registers of Historic Places, and the Foundation aims to educate the public about its significance and the surrounding region.
The mansion itself is a stunning example of Second Empire architecture, featuring a distinctive mansard roof, elegant windows with original shutters, and a pentagonal stair tower. Once the residence of Paul and Alice Shipman, the mansion later became the clubhouse for the Red Dragon Canoe Club, one of the oldest active canoe clubs on the Delaware River. Through tours, events, and educational programs, the Shipman Mansion Foundation strives to enhance the community's understanding of the diverse history of the area.
