1973: COLONIAL'S NEW FIREHOUSE

As indicated above, the article on the left is from the Mercer Messenger, heralding the grand opening of Colonial Volunteer Fire Company's brand new fire house on the Lenhardt Farm on Kuser Road. On the right is one of the fire trucks used in Colonial's early Liberty Street years.
If you look closely in the background, you will see the concrete arch from whence hung Trenton's old City Hall bell which now reposes on the front lawn of the new fire house. Behind the arch holding the bell, you will see Frese's delicatessen, also known by locals as "Freezies."
