1896: East State Street Trenton

This engraving is from a little 1896 "Souvenir of Trenton, New Jersey." The size of the original is only about 4 x 5," but through the miracle of digital imaging technology, it has been enlarged and enhanced, revealing a very appealing view of E. State Street looking toward Broad Street. The YMCA is in the left foreground, and the familiar First Presbyterian Church and City Hall are seen on the right.
