A Winter Day on Hamilton Avenue, The Burg.
Click this picture and fill your screen with
Hamilton Avenue. You can see Saint Francis Hospital
in the distance. You can also see the Firehouse:)
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:)

Hi Mack: That looks like the corner of Hamilton and Revere Ave. Jake Miller, the manager of the Schroths baseball team for many years, lived three doors from the corner. Further down the street was the office of Dr. Michael Larkin, my wife's doctor when my son was born. The area still looks very nice after all these years. Regards, Ralph
Ralph, the picture was taken from the corner of Division and Hamilton. Looking toward St Francis Hospital. The second house (white) is 452. That's where I grew up. The other corner is Monmouth. Great picture Mack! Really takes me back. How old is it??
Hi There Ralph & Noel:)
Noel you are correct about the
picture, and it is from Feb 2008.
Ralph is correct most of the time
but even Babe Ruth didnt everything
over the fence:)
Digger: Because your comment does
not mention anything SPECIFIC about
the blog and links to a commercial
site, I must DELETE it. If you
really are a real person and not
a computer progammed bot just finding links, please come back as
anonymous or a non-commercial site
name:)
Holy Mackeral! I really got that wrong. I was looking for the firehouse that was at Hamilton and Anderson. I could'nt see it so I thought that was the part of Hamilton toward Revere, See what old age does to you. Sorry
I grew up on this block of Hamilton Ave altough our house is not seen in the picture. Mack, if you can get a snap of 471 and post it I would be thrilled to see the old place. :)
