Branch Brook Fall Color. This photo shows a bit of the vivid fall colors at the height of the season in Branch Brook Park, Newark, New Jersey. In the background you see a portion of the Ballantine Gateway, that leads into the Forest Hill section of Newark. Located at Lake Street, the Ballantine Gateway separates Branch Brook Park from Newark’s wealthiest neighborhood, Forest Hill. The Ballantine Gateway is a memorial to Robert F. Ballantine, a wealthy brewer and Newark resident who died in Europe while on a vacation. The gateway was constructed in 1899 and designed by Carriere and Hastings, the official architect of the Essex County Park Commission. Needless to say, Branch Brook Park is delightful this time of year.
