At 94 Drs. James Parker Boulevard in Red Bank, New Jersey, the T. Thomas Fortune House stands as a mid-19th-century Victorian residence historically known as Maple Hall. Built during the Victorian era, the house gained significance as the home of Timothy Thomas Fortune (1856–1928), a prominent African-American journalist and civil rights advocate, who lived there from 1901 to 1908. Designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976, the house is now operated by a nonprofit organization committed to preserving Fortune's legacy of activism and community engagement.
