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:)

The Garden Theatre, 150 North Broad Street, Trenton
The Garden Theatre, 150 North Broad Street, Trenton This is a bit before my time but I imagine some Burg folks remember going to this place back in their day:)
Hi Mack: I believe The Garden Theatre featured foreign movies. I remember it because it was next to Mel Blatt;s bowling store, if I recall correctly. Stern's furniture store was also nearby on N. Broad St. For some reason, those theatres that featured foreign films called themselves Art Theatres.
I belive the proper name for this establishment was "The Garden Art Theater".
ReplyDeleteThere was something about "Art" in a name, like the "Bristol Art Theater" in Bristol.
Never went to either. ;-)
