2007 Flood
The Steuben House suffered little in the way of permanent damage in the April 2007 nor'easter. However, the Bergen County Historical Society collections that had been moved to the second floor in previous floods, had been left on the first floor, and numerous artifacts were damaged or destroyed. This NJ State Historic site is currently opened by volunteers for special events.

Famous quotes containing the word flood:
“Twilight and evening bell.
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For though from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
