Each Sunday morning for the past 5 years or so, I visit the South Village on Lalor Street, and another site on Stokeley Avenue to bring communion to the residents of those two housing units. My journey from Sacred Heart Church on South Broad Street takes me the length of Centre Street all the way to Lalor. As I journey down that historic area of Trenton, I pass by the historic First Baptist Church, the now abandoned factory of the former Exton Cracker Company, the old Centre Theater which is now a pharmacy, the Wesley Methodist Church, Mott School, and other historic sites on that grand old avenue. This clipping tells of some of the social "doings" in that area before the advent of abandoned and boarded up homes.
