PATERSON, N.J. — A waterfall in one of New Jersey’s largest cities became the nation’s newest national park Monday. The 77-foot Great Falls in downtown Paterson was given the national-park designation in a ceremony attended by New Jersey officials, local schoolchildren, U.S. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar and the head of the National Park Service. The Great Falls is second only to Niagara Falls in water volume east of the Mississippi River.
