History

The area that would become the borough had been known as Corona from the mid-1800s and grew up around the two local railroad stations. The name “Hasbrouck” was chosen in 1889 to honor Jacob Dillon Hasbrouck (1842–1918), general manager of the New Jersey and New York Railroad. In the face of local opposition, the name change was promoted as improving the community’s public perception and avoiding confusion with the Corona, Queens neighborhood, while “Heights” was added to avoid confusion with a similarly named community in upstate New York.

Hasbrouck Heights was formed by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on August 2, 1894, based on the passage of a referendum on July 31, 1894, and was created from portions of Lodi Township at the height of the “Boroughitis” phenomenon then sweeping through Bergen County. A part of the borough was annexed to Lodi in 1901.
