The town of Edison, a part of the greater New York City Metro Area, offers a great place to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, just a short distance away. Once known as the Raritan Township, the town changed its name to honor Thomas Edison, the famous inventor whose laboratory was located in the town’s Menlo Park. Several other tributes to the inventor throughout Edison as well, such as the museum. There are a number of other things to do in town, however, that aren’t associated with Thomas Edison.
