1949: NO. OLDEN AVENUE EXTENSION AT PENNINGTON ROAD


PETE SAPNAR, THANK YOU FOR CORRECTING MY ERROR!  It was I who gave the incorrect information that this was a view of Pennington Road "heading toward the city of Trenton." Thanks to the sharp eye of Peter, it is really North Olden Avenue Extension heading toward Parkway Avenue.


A CORRECTION FROM FACEBOOK 
VISITOR PETE SPANAR:
Pete Sapnar The photo captioned "1949: Pennington Rd at No. Olden Ave Extension" is mislabeled as the camera is looking up No. Olden Ave. The cross road is Pennington Rd. Note the sign pointing to the right leading to Ewingville and Flemington and pointing left to go to Trenton

Following is the re-written information which will correct the error:
 This was familiar territory for me back in 1952 when I was employed in the very beginning of what would be a dead end career at the Trenton Bearing Company at 1812 North Olden Avenue Extension. Frank Ayres' Esso station is on the right, and across the street one of my many lunch time stops, a littl shack on No. Olden Avenue where a guy I only recall as "Frank" offered the most delicious Italian sausage sandwiches you could imagine
