A Blog about the Chambersburg area of Trenton NJ. The Burg we all loved and miss. If you were from the Burg I hope many of the pictures and lists and comments under them from good folks bring back some nice memories. Villa Park, Franklin Park, South Trenton, and nearby Hamilton also mentioned. Use the search box atop the blog to find schools,churches,streets,stores,bars etc that you remember. Over 4000 posts and 3000 pics. Enjoy:)
701-703 Beatty Street, The Burg. Once Koslows Department Store back in the day.

Mack: Picture brings back memories. Koslow's had everything in life you needed said my grandmother. No malls in those days. Across the street was a drug store, Milner's I think, everyone went to use the phone booth there. My cousin Tom lived across the street a few doors down.
I remember this place. Did my Christmas shopping there. I earned 10 cents a string at Heil's Bowling Alley, across the street, and spent it at Koslows.

Great wooden floors...just like the 5&10's downtown! And the biggest button collection in the world!
