Peapack-Gladstone (also written as Peapack and Gladstone) is a borough in Somerset County in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2010 Census, the borough's population was 2,582,〔〔〔 reflecting an increase of 149 (+6.1%) from the 2,433 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 322 (+15.3%) from the 2,111 counted in the 1990 Census.〔(Table 7. Population for the Counties and Municipalities in New Jersey: 1990, 2000 and 2010 ), New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, February 2011. Accessed February 13, 2013.〕 It is part of the New York metropolitan area, as well as the larger New YorkNewarkBridgeport, NY-NJ-CT-PA Combined Statistical Area.
Peapack-Gladstone was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 28, 1912, from portions of Bedminster Township, subject to the results of a referendum held on April 23, 1912.〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 224. Accessed March 27, 2012.〕〔
Peapack is believed to have been derived from "Peapackton", a Lenape Native American term meaning "marriage of the waters", a reference to the confluence of the Peapack Brook and Raritan River in the area. Gladstone was named in honor of William Ewart Gladstone, who served as British Prime Minister several times between 1868 and 1894.〔Cheslow, Jerry.("If You're Thinking of Living In/Peapack and Gladstone; Fox-Hunting and High-Priced Homes" ), ''The New York Times'', August 7, 1994. Accessed August 29, 2013. "One local history speculates that the name Peapack came from the Leni Lenape Indian word 'peapackton' -- 'the marriage of the waters.' The Raritan River and the Peapack Brook meet at the eastern border of the borough. Gladstone is named for the British Prime Minister William Gladstone ... ()y 1912, the Villages of Peapack and Gladstone found themselves in conflict with the rest of Bedminster Township. The villages wanted electric lights, telephones and fire hydrants and resented being forced to pay for rural roads in the township. The villages petitioned the State Legislature for the creation of the borough and the Legislature voted to do so on April 23, 1912."〕〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed September 16, 2015.〕
The borough was a major shooting location of the CBS soap opera ''Guiding Light'' from 2007 until the show's conclusion in 2009.〔Heyboer, Kelly. ("''Guiding Light'': Rethinking soap operas in Peapack" ), ''The Star-Ledger'', March 18, 2008. Accessed September 29, 2013. "The venerable CBS institution has adopted the New Jersey town of Peapack as its real-life set. About a fifth of the soap's scenes are now being filmed at locations in the Somerset County town."〕
