The Borough was incorporated in 1894 under the name of Woodcliff. The word “Lake” was appended to the name in 1910 to be the same as that of the Post Office. It is part of an area generally referred to as the Pascack Valley.

Originally, the Algonquin Indians were the first settlers in this fertile area of Pascack Valley. When the Dutch East India Company settled nearby Manhattan in the early 1600’s, they exchanged glass beads and other trinkets for the coveted Indian beaver pelt. Beaver hats were the rage in Europe at the time, especially among the English who were willing to pay top prices for quality pelts.

Peter P. Post House
259 Pascack Road
Woodcliff Lake, NJ 07677

(Photo by Bill Coughlin, courtesy of HMdb.org)

This sandstone and frame house was built about 1794 by
Peter P. Post, a third generation miller from Pompton,
who settled here in 1789 and operated a gristmill along
nearby Bear Brook. Later owners included the
Abraham J. Demarest family who were occupants for
fifty years. Combining country and Federal styles of architecture,
the house was enlarged and remodeled in the late 1800’s.
