History

Major redevelopment has occurred in the past several years; establishing the scenic Riverfront and Downtown areas into an artists' haven including many studios, shops and restaurants. In 1776, Joseph Smith and Henry Drinker purchased 24,000 acres (97 km²) of land known as the Union Mills Tract. By 1880, more than 7,600 people called Millville their home. Landis laid out the city of Vineland, New Jersey about two and a half miles east of the Maurice River. In the early 1850s, Buck's plan seemed to be becoming more and more of a reality.
