359 Hamilton Avenue, The Burg



359 Hamilton Avenue, The Burg
Once upon a time this was the Office of Doctor Gaetano
Mazzanti, according to my records.
There were some cool ole homes on Hamilton Avenue:)

Hi Mack: I don't think there is a street in Trenton that had more doctors than Hamiltojn Ave. When I delivered mail on W. State St., I thought they had more, but after reading your site, I think Hamilton Ave. had more. One of the reasons could be the size of those homes. There was room for an office and plenty of other space to live. I think it all started with the trolleys. Stay well and stick with the Burg. Best regards.
