Aviation Hall of Fame of New Jersey: Located at Teterboro Airport, North Bergen

Despite its name association with Teterboro, the Aviation Hall of Fame and Museum of New Jersey is physically located on the grounds of Teterboro Airport in North Bergen, not Teterboro proper. The address is 400 Fred Wehran Drive, Teterboro Airport, North Bergen, NJ 07047.

Why the Confusion?

Teterboro Airport straddles the border of Teterboro Borough, Moonachie, and North Bergen. The museum sits on the North Bergen portion. Founded in 1972, it preserves New Jersey's aviation heritage—including the state's role in early airmail, seaplane development, and astronaut Mark Kelly's connection.

Collection Highlights

• Historic aircraft: Bell 47 helicopter, Grumman Gulfhawk, Republic Seabee
• Space artifacts: Mark Kelly's flight suit, Garrett Reisman memorabilia
