Control Area of former U.S. Army Nike missile battery NY-93/94 located atop Campgaw Mountain. This double site contained two separate radar installations each containing radars and a missile guidance computer. The site was operational through 1971. It is now the Shadow Ridge Riding Area (Bergen County Parks Department) and some of the army's original buildings are now used as horse stables.
