Why Roselle?

We are inspired by Thomas Edison and his groundbreaking innovation in Roselle, New Jersey. In 1883, Roselle became the first community in the world to be illuminated by an interlinked system of overhead wires connected to a single generator. Edison's experiment proved that electricity could light the globe.
