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:)

Growing up just a few doors away from this building I recall it being owned and used (at least the bottom floor) by the Maisto family that owned the New Colonial Bakery. Hamlet Maisto lived there with his mother as I remember. We always referred to it as , and I'm not sure of the spelling, as the Cubberly townhouse, but don't know the reason why !
Hi Guys: I believe the small building next door looks like a pool room that Larry Pagliaro ran in the 30s. I may have a different block of Butler St. in mind. The fire escape indicates it was an apt building, but the garage in the rear is rare in the Burg. Apt buildings were few in Chambersburg, although we lived in one on Emory Ave, that was Nardi's place, next to the store.
the small building on the left and i think the garage(?) was the original new colonial bakery location.
when i worked at the hudson st location, they stored their bags in the garage. we had to walk with dollies or drive a truck to get more supplies from the garage.
