If you've never been to our practice before, here are two easy routes you could take: 

1. Take Main Street east, then turn right onto Franklin Turnpike. After two miles, turn right onto Allendale Ave. Drive past the first few buildings on the right, then turn right into our parking lot. We're at 70 W Allendale Ave.
2. If the turnpike is busy, you can exit right onto Crescent Ave, then turn left onto Myrtle Ave. At the bend, that road becomes Allendale Ave, and you'll be able to watch for us coming up on the left after a few buildings. 

Before European settlers arrived, the area now known as Ramsey was home to the Lenape Native Americans. With deep historical roots, Ramsey boasts landmarks like the Old Stone House — a Dutch farmhouse built in the early 1700s using local stone (and even hog’s hair). Once a tavern during the Revolutionary War, the site is steeped in legend, including tales of Aaron Burr stopping there on his way to court his future wife.

Ramsey earned its name from Peter J. Ramsey, a 19th-century landowner whose property became the location of “Ramsey’s Station” when the railroad expanded in 1848. In the years that followed, Ramsey grew into a hub for agriculture, particularly known for its booming strawberry industry. At its peak, millions of baskets of strawberries were shipped from Ramsey to New York City by train each season.

Though the farms and berry patches have long since given way to homes and modern developments, Ramsey’s agricultural legacy lives on in its charm and community spirit. Today, it remains a welcoming Bergen County town with a proud past — and easy access to the trusted dental care available at our Allendale dental center.

Each evening during peak season, between four and eight train cars loaded with freshly picked strawberries departed from the siding stops along the Paterson and Ramapo rail line in Ramsey and Allendale. Wagons filled with baskets of berries lined up for blocks, stretching west toward Wyckoff Road and east along what is now Lake Street. It was a bustling chapter in local history — one that helped shape the region’s identity before the quiet farming roads gave way to homes, neighborhoods, and a strong sense of community that continues today.
