The landing was long erroneously thought to have taken place at the Closter Landing in Alpine, then known as "Upper Closter Landing", and now the site of the Alpine Boat Basin and picnic area. The actual path used by the British later became a road used to bring farm goods from the Northern Valley to a dock at river level ("Huyler’s"), where there were also buildings until later in the 20th century. <sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The Park trail follows the old farmers' road from the Shore Trail at the bottom to the top, where it connects with the Long Path. </p><p><a href="/wiki/George_Washington" title="George Washington">George Washington</a> and <a href="/wiki/Nathanael_Greene" title="Nathanael Greene">Nathanael Greene</a> quickly ordered the evacuation of the fort on the morning of November 20, 1776.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTESpring2007[httpsbooksgooglecombooksidQq401Z0BEckCpgPA27_p._27]_17-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTESpring2007[httpsbooksgooglecombooksidQq401Z0BEckCpgPA27_p._27]-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="American_retreat">American retreat</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Fort_Lee_Historic_Park&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: American retreat"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The soldiers then began a hasty retreat west, crossing the <a href="/wiki/Hackensack_River" title="Hackensack River">Hackensack River</a> at <a href="/wiki/New_Bridge_Landing" title="New Bridge Landing">New Bridge Landing</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Passaic_River" title="Passaic River">Passaic River</a> at <a href="/wiki/Gregory_Avenue_Bridge" title="Gregory Avenue Bridge">Acquackanonk Bridge</a><sup id="cite_ref-NYCBridge_18-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NYCBridge-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>During Washington's retreat, which began along a road that is now Main Street,<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Paine" title="Thomas Paine">Thomas Paine</a> authored and published his pamphlet, "<a href="/wiki/The_American_Crisis" title="The American Crisis">The American Crisis</a>", in Philadelphia, which began with the famed phrase, "These are the times that try men's souls".<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Fort_Lee_Museum_and_Monument_Park">Fort Lee Museum and Monument Park</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Fort_Lee_Historic_Park&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Fort Lee Museum and Monument Park"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Fort_Lee_Museum" title="Fort Lee Museum">Fort Lee Museum</a> is located in Monument Park. which was created by the <a href="/wiki/Daughters_of_the_American_Revolution" title="Daughters of the American Revolution">Daughters of the American Revolution</a> and dedicated in 1908 at ceremony attended by General <a href="/wiki/John_J._Pershing" title="John J.
