Roosevelt

Small town in Monmouth County, central New Jersey; population (1990) 884. It is located 8 km/5 mi southeast of Hightstown. Originally called Jersey Homesteads, it was built in 1935 as a project of the Federal Resettlement Administration. Constructed for needle trade workers from Philadelphia and New York City, it was an experimental cooperative that combined residential, manufacturing, and agricultural elements. When the original plans proved unworkable, the community was opened to other residents in 1940; after President Roosevelt's death in 1945, it was renamed in his honour.
