The above graphic tells of plans which were ultimately completed for a building to be constructed on North Broad Street in the Battle Monument area of Trenton. Castanea is a well known name in the area, especially to those of us in the senior citizen community. The little graphic I inserted at the top left shows a rubber tired horse drawn delivery wagon the company used in the 1930's. Like many Trenton area residents of my generation, the Castanea Dairy was a familiar visitor to us every morning. I can still remember getting those 2 bottles of milk on a very cold winter day; so cold that the cardboard caps popped off and the wonderful cream rested on top in all its frozen glory.
