I'm overdue.
I just don't go out when it's hot and humid, but Sunday morning was so nice, I spent about 3 hours and must have walked 3-4 miles as I traversed Main St from Anderson to Essex and back with a side trip into Bogota, shooting almost ALL of the ongoing projects, so I can hibernate again for another month or two.
There's so much stuff, I'm gonna have to make 4 posts (there's a 20-image limit per post). Although I didn't shoot them in this order, I'm listing them sequentially from south to north. I shot a few other things that caught my eye, so I'm just going to intersperse them within the sequence.
The Bogota project has its own topic, so here's everything else:
The Alfred and Mary Sanzari Garden
This is that little pocket park at Main and Essex across from the Bergen County Courthouse.
The Bergen County Courthouse area
One from the park, one from General Poor, two golden oldies on the roof and dome
50 Main
1. The sign at Moore and Bridge - first floor says "Restaurant", "Office", "Cafe" and "Snack".
2. Stitch from Washington Place
3. Stitch from Moore looking northwest
4. Looking toward Main St from Moore
76 Main
Stitch with a glitch
149 and 153 Main
1. 149 Main
2. 153 Main, where the furniture fire was last October
3. Odd stitch showing the north side of 149 Main, taken from the back left side of the previous photo. Also visible on the far left is a bit of the 170 Main Project across the street.
4. Rear interior view of The Battleground store at 157 Main, the first store to the north of 153 Main
5. 149 Main's interior from the back
6. This was taken a few doors south when I was walking back to an alley to get me back onto Main St. 149 is the tall building on the far left. The long awning says "135" and the green and white sign below it says "Tati's Salon", which fronts on Main St next to the other end of the alley.
7. Meanwhile, here's what the alley itself contains: "Greetings from THE SACK". (do you know ANYBODY who refers to Hackensack as "The Sack"? I don't.)
8. On a somewhat sadder note, I thought The Battleground and Kids Rule were coming back after the fire at 153. Apparently not.
