About this site

Thank you for visiting Martin Van Buren National Historic Site! The crowdsourced time lapse from this view provides an opportunity to observe a site in transformation from a young forest high in invasive species to an orchard that restores the land use that was in place at the time Martin Van Buren lived at Lindenwald. This forest was cleared in March of 2023. Check back throughout the year to watch the changes underway in this land use restoration project.
