1941: SOUTH WARREN STREET

I had somewhat of a problem placing this photo due to the numbers of Zoda'a and Dave's. The numbers seem to indicate that the traffic is traveling north from the old So. Warren Street, but I will need the expertise of a South Trenton native to verify that assumption.

Hi Tom, I think you are absolutely correct. I believe this is South Warren, between Front and State. That 1947 Chevrolet is traveling North, and it looks brand new. The Casa Lido restaurant was located, probably, where the parking lot is in this photo. Can you make out the letters on the vertical sign to the very far right, just about out of the picture. Does it say CHRYSLER? That would be the location of Capitol Motors, before they moved to South Broad St., in 1949. rayfromvillapark
