1923: RIVER ROAD, WEST TRENTON

I will need a visitor more familiar with the West Trenton area (once known as "Trenton Junction" to pinpoint this spot on the "Trenton Junction Road." It seems to bring back an earlier post where there was an Esso Station at the entrance to the Washington Crossing Bridge. I need help here.
