Upper Saddle River's Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) was established to protect buildings listed on the Borough Inventory of Historic Sites from demolition or major alteration that would destroy historic value, to encourage owners of those buildings to explore alternatives to demolition and to foster pride in the community and its historic past. Upper Saddle River is rich with history and its historical buildings and sites add greatly to the town's charm.

The HPC is making available historic markers for eligible historic homes. Homes must be listed on the Upper Saddle River Inventory of Historic Homes and/or the Bergen County Survey of Historic Sites. Almost all of these homes were built before 1900. Members of the Commission will be contacting the homeowners of eligible homes and explaining the program to them.

Members of the HPC are appointed by Mayor and Council. The Commission meets at Borough Hall on the second Monday of each month at 7 pm. The public is welcome to attend.
