This fascinating 1905 map of the Bromley area as it was laid out in 1905. Even as Nottingham was borrowed from Great Britain as was Millham, so too was Bromley named for an area in England. Bromley, Cedar Lawn, Broad Street Park, and Deutzville, with their very close proximity to the city of Trenton, are gradually changing into more urban areas. It is hoped that the town fathers recognize and respect the change.
