Wave Hill was actually a country home built by jurist William Lewis Morris in 1843. Between 1866 to1903 it was owned by William Henry Appleton who enlarged the house in 1866 and once again in 1890. Wave Hill attracted pioneering natural scientists such as Thomas Henry Huxley and Charles Darwin. In fact, Huxley was so taken with Wave Hill that he declared the Palisades across the river one of the world's greatest natural wonders.
