Murray Hill, New Jersey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- For other places with the same name, see Murray Hill.
Murray Hill is an unincorporated area within portions of both Berkeley Heights and New Providence, located in Union County in north-central New Jersey.
Amongst other things, it is the longtime central location of Bell Labs (now part of Lucent Technologies) and it shares its ZIP Code 07974 with the neighboring borough of New Providence.
Local tradition has it that the area was named after the Bell Labs location there: The laboratories had been previously located in Murray Hill, Manhattan, and when the facilities moved to New Jersey in 1941, workers continued to refer to the "Murray Hill Bell Labs", giving the area a new name. This apocryphal story is tempting, but false.
