Martin Terrace was part of the Zingsem estate, which was bounded by Main Street, Catalpa Ave, Spring Valley Ave, and Krone Place. He was the founder and builder of most of the Fairmount Section of Hackensack (at that time Fairmount was defined as both sides of Poplar Ave, and north and west to the borders of Hackensack, and only the streets west of Main Street.) He originally built one house per square block. Some are still standing, though greatly altered and subdivided. See the historic house at NE corner of Summit and Cedar, that begins to capture the charm of the area from the Zingsem era. It's like a fossil.
You should also read Scudder's writings on the Fairmount Section of Hackensack, which are posted on this website somewhere. I haven't yet read Barbara Gooding's book on Hackensack, eager to see what she uncovered.
I believe there is an artist depiction of the Zingsem estate on one of the late 1800's atlas of Hackensack. Our editor is in possession of these. I think the actual estate house sat squarely on what is now Martin Terrace and Pine Street, or just to the west of the intersection.
The houses on Martin Terrace all originally had red terra cotta roofs. I believe that most if not all of them have been replaced, mostly with red and brown asphalt shinge roofs.
Note also the old Krone factory, which had burned. The bombed-out scary-looking remains were finally demolished in the late 1970's, to contruct 3 2-family houses (west side of Krone, midway between Catalpa and Cedar). Many of the look-alike houses on Catalpa were occupied by employees of this factory. I think the Krone estate is the NW corner of Cedar and Krone, also subdivided but the house is still standing. City Councilwoman Barbara Elder (1980's - Cerbo administration) lived in a house on Krone almost directly across the street.
