73 Wickapecko Drive, Wanamassa, NJ
Harper Estate/Ivy Hedge Estate


“Ivy Hedge” on Wickapecko Drive in Wanamassa was built by M.H. Harper, one of the 3rd generation of the Harper family, who owned the Harper & Brothers Publishing Company (their Publisher and Corporate President George B.M. Harvey lived across the street). It was later owned by James B. Regan, the owner of the Knickerbocker Hotel in New York City. In 1923, the property was sold to J. Lyle Kinmouth, editor and publisher of the Asbury Park Press. In the 1960s, the property was used as a convent and the St. Mary's (R.C.) Elementary School was built behind it.  Today it is owned and operated by the Search Day Program School.
