Thomas Edison Home
Historical place museum
👍👍 Huge house with very unique architecture. I assumed Edison built it, but he actually purchased it. You have to ask for a pass while at the lab to see the house and then drive over, since it is in a gated community. Think about how cool it would be to be Edison's neighbor.

Wallace House & Old Dutch Parsonage State Historic Sites
State park
👍👍 I didn't get to enter the house, but they had a re-enactment and life story accounting of Phillis Wheatley which was pretty good. If history was taught like this, it would have caught my attention more in school. Parking lot is limited but street parking shouldn't be a problem.
