THIS IS AN EXQUISITE PHOTO OF THE EDGEWOOD AVENUE AREA AS IT APPEARED IN 1936. I AM NOT TOO FAMILAR WITH THAT AREA OF TRENTON, BUT IF ANY VIEWER IS, I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS.THANKS TO SALLY GILMAN FOR THE FOLLOWING COMMENT ON THE PHOTO ABOVE, PINPOINTING THE VANTAGE POINT FROM WHENCE THE PHOTO WAS TAKEN.
THANKS, SALLY!:

Hi Tom: Although the photo of Edgewood Ave. is a bit before my time, it was one street over from Carteret Ave. where I grew up. It's in West Trenton, with the 900 block just off Parkside Avenue. We had great fun in the winter sledding on the lawns in front of the big homes on the 800 block. The homes backed up to what was known as Niagara Alley where the people had their garages and parked their cars. It was just below the Delaware and Raritan Canal Feeder. You can post this in your blog. Thanks again for the great memories, Sally Logan Gilman.

Hi Tom: I grew up on Carteret Ave. and had relatives living one street over on Edgewood. We would walk Edgewood to get to the Strand Theater on Hermitage Avenue.
