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:)

this scene was along my path to and from sacred heart school in the '70s.
see the traffic light hanging above the street near the center of the picture?
the light stopped traffic to allow forklifts carrying wire rope to cross hamilton ave. the forklifts ran between the two buildings all day long.

If I remember correctly wasn't there a small bucket, or something like that) that traveled from one side of the side to the other side of the street also?
i am not sure if i remember any buckets. but, there may have been other types of small vehicles that transported materials between the buildings.
as you know, the building on the right is no longer there. the soverign bank arena occupies the site.
i think(???) that some of the bricks from the razed building were used in the facade of tha arena.
