1300 Hamilton Avenue, Hamilton



1300 Hamilton Avenue, Hamilton
I think this might have once been an Old Borough Savings
& Loan Branch in my day but maybe not.

UPDATE:
Carlo Benedetti adds:

Actually this was started back in the early 60's as the
Hamilton Branch of Trenton Trust Co. I remember vividly
because this is where I did all my banking when I became
the owner of The Olden Pharmacy in 1963. It later became
The National State Bank and subsequently was bought out by
a series of different banks. Also got my first credit card
there. Mac,your great site brings back all kinds of memories!

Hi Carlo.
Thank you:)
You are right as always:)
Its listed as Trenton Trust
Company in my 1960s book.
In my 1950s book this address
was Logan & Hamilton TV & Appliances. I guess they tore
that down and built this on
the site:)
