| The Ely House (c. 1850) features room displays on the first floor which highlight the Society's extensive collection of furniture, textiles and costumes. Several portraits by Marlatt, a noted mid-nineteenth century Hightstown artist, are displayed on the walls. The Society bought the Ely House in 1976, and renovations are ongoing. The Freight Station is a large room that was added to the back of the Ely house. It is an authentic freight station that once served the Camden & Amboy Railroad that passed through the center of Hightstown. Now it is used as a museum display room as well as a meeting room for the Society and other local groups. The library is at the north end of the Freight Station. |
