WELCOME
Welcome to the home of American Firepower
Situated on a 6,500-acre military installation located in the
northwest corner of New Jersey, Picatinny plays a unique role in
the United States' ability to wage war. There is no other
comprehensive armaments facility like it in the country; it is a
one-of-a-kind facility that provides virtually all of the lethal
mechanisms used in Army weapon systems and those of the other
military services.
Nestled in North Western New Jersey, Morris County is home to
Picatinny. Morris County is among one of the fastest growing areas
in the New Jersey, New York, Connecticut Metropolitan region.
Settled amid rolling hills, glistening lakes, and broad valleys, Morris
County is approximately 45 minutes from New York City and
2 hours from Philadelphia. Beautiful homes predominate both in
the towns and the countryside. With multi-million dollar shopping
centers and three universities, Morris County is a great place to
live. So get out there and explore!

HISTORY
Picatinny Arsenal Historical
Overview
On 6 September 1880, the War
Department established the Dover
Powder Depot. Four days later, it
changed the name to Picatinny
Arsenal Powder Depot. In 1907, the
Army altered the name to Picatinny
Arsenal and established its first
powder factory on the site. While
continuing to produce munitions, the
arsenal moved into research and
development work with the start of a
school to instruct officers in weaponry
sciences in 1911, the establishment of
testing and control laboratories during
the World War I era, and the
beginning of a small, experimental
plant for the design and development
of artillery ammunition in 1919. In
1921, the arsenal took over
responsibility for experimental work
on fuzes.
The arsenal continued to realize its
potential as a research and
development facility in the years
between the two world wars. Major
accomplishments of this period
included better methods for storing
smokeless powder, improved
processing of cyclonite, more
commonly called RDX, and the
discovery of a new explosive, haleite.
The discoverer was Dr. George C.
Hale, the arsenal's chief chemist.
After World War II, Picatinny Arsenal
refocused its efforts on developing
new weapons and munitions. Its
support to the American forces in
Korea included an improved bazooka
and an illuminating rifle grenade. In
periods of peace, the arsenal made
important contributions to progress in
the areas of radar, pyrotechnics,
missiles, time fuzes, and nuclear
munitions.
5
Cannon
Gates
circa
1885
When war broke out again, it gave
troops in Vietnam a complete family of
40mm ammunition for grenade
launchers and helicopter gun ships.
In 1977, the Army recognized Picatinny
Arsenal's leadership in weapons and
munitions development by
headquartering its Armament Research
and Development Command at the
arsenal and giving it responsibility for
developing small caliber weapons and
munitions.
In 1983, the Army disestablished the
Armament Research and Development
Command and Picatinny Arsenal became
the home of the Armament Research
and Development Center. In 1986, the
name again changed to the Armament
Research, Development and Engineering
Center. Whatever the name, the
installation leads the way in weapons
and ammunition development.
Expansion of the Arsenal
Gasoline-Electric Locomotive Shed and
Garage Under Construction
A deed dated 26 June 1880 records the
first land purchase for the future
Picatinny Arsenal. Mr. George E. Righter
transferred 1,195.8 acres centered on
Lake Picatinny Arsenal to the United
States Government in return for
$35,874.00. This area, afterwards known
as the Middle Forge Tract because of the
forge located there during the Revolutionary War, became the central area of the
arsenal. In 1880 and 1881, the government also purchased tracts from Uel H.
Wiggins, Edward C. Fiedler, Henry and
Michael Doland, John E. Kindred, and
others. These initial purchases, including
the Middle Forge Tract, covered 1866.13
acres and cost a total of $62,750.00. At
the same time, the government gave
$200.00 to Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Spicer for
a 50 foot strip on which to construct a
road from Spicertown to the powder
depot. In 1891, the Army transferred 315
acres bordering Lake Denmark to the
Navy.
Over the years, the Army continued to
make small purchases to round out
arsenal boundaries, but the next major
expansion came in 1941, just before the
United States entered World War II. At
this time, the Army purchased the land
between the Cannon Gates and the
present main entrance near NJ Route 15.
This included Spicertown, an unincorporated village in Rockaway Township.
Spicertown had declined from a relatively
thriving nineteenth century community of
small but profitable farms to a rather
depressed area in 1941. Still, many of
the residences were in good condition
and house military families to this day.
Near Parker Road are buildings 1123 and
1124, both acquired from the estate of
John E. Larson for $16,000.00. The
purchase price included 24 acres of land.
Buildings 1125, 1126, and 1127 and the
accompanying 12 acres cost the government $19,769.00. On the opposite side of
Parker Road are buildings 1138 and
1139, acquired from Helen Jane Larsen
with 1.5 acres for $10,534.00, and building 1140, the former home of Clarence
and Agnes Burdette constructed around
1919. The government appraiser
praised the landscaping and the grassy
knoll location. The primary vehicle for
transportation in the early days of the
Arsenal was the railroad.
The early Wharton & Northern
(succeeded by the Jersey Central) was
laid from Wharton to Green Pond
through the heart of the valley in which
Picatinny Arsenal now resides. This line
connected the various railroads serving
the Wharton area with the New York,
Susquehanna & Western at Green
Pond. Picatinny Arsenal maintained as
much as 49 miles of its own narrow
and standard gauge Picatinny Arsenal
Railroad to service its many transportation needs (fuel, raw materials, ammunition, etc.). Today, rail service through
the Arsenal is just a memory with only
a disused weed-choked stub line into
the Arsenal and scattered traces of the
once busy narrow gauge railway.
In 1960, the Army resumed control of
land it had given the Navy, bringing the
installation to its current size and
shape.

current and future armament and munitions systems. ARDEC plays a key part in
Army Transformation with its involvement in the development of the Soldier and
Future Combat Systems and continued efforts in the development of advanced
weapons that exploit technologies like high-power microwaves, high-energy lasers
and nano-technology.
ARDEC's overall mission is to improve already fielded items, develop new ones,
