Extended Description

The Edison Home sits within Glenmont Estate in Llewellyn Park just north of Interstate 280 in West Orange, New Jersey. The park’s Visitor Center as well as the Edison Laboratory sit outside Llewellyn Park east of the main park. Parking and New Jersey Transit is available at the Visitor Center.

To enter Llewellyn Park and then Glenmont Estate and Edison’s Home there, visitors must travel south from the Visitor’s Center along Main Street, turn west onto Park Way, and then travel past the Gatehouse. The Edison Home sits on the far west side of the inner, darker green park within Llewellyn Park. Park Way connects with Honeysuckle Road, which has parking, and Glen Avenue to make a loop around and through Glenont Estate.

In the surrounding areas, Main Street becomes Valley Road near the bottom center of the map, where a site labeled Community has a New Jersey Transit stop. Main Street continues east off the right edge of the map. Other labeled roads include the north-south High Street near the right side of the map and the east-west Alden Street, Lakeside Avenue, and Park Avenue in the top right quadrant. Mount Pleasant Avenue crosses Interstate 280 at exit 9 and Northfield Avenue intersects Interstate 280 at Exit 10. Interstate 280 leads “To Interstate 80 and Morristown” off the left edge of the map and “To Garden State Parkway” off the bottom center of the map.
