The New Bridge Medical Center!

Just take the train to the New Bridge Landing station and walk a few miles.

Apparently, not everyone is in love with the new name:

I think the name change is bad for another reason; it's nowhere near NEW BRIDGE LANDING.

I don't think anything in Bergen County should be named NEW BRIDGE unless it's located in that geographical area where River Edge, New Milford, Hackensack, and Teaneck come together.

Um.......that was exactly my point when I wrote (and added a smiley):

I got a great name for Bergen Regional Medical Center.  How about "Bergen Pines".

"NEW Bergen Pines"! It keeps the "New", loses the "Bridge", sounds fresh and spiffy (and slightly crazy).

Why not find some guy willing to kick in 10 mill and name it after him or her.  The _____.  ___ Regional Medical Center. End of problem.

1. Looking for a new, fun place to go on Friday the 13th, I headed out to Paramus.

2. I wanted to get a shot of the sign while the flowers were still new and attended to (you never know when that nosy press might show up).

3. Don't smoke the sidewalk.

4. I was tempted to write "BRMC" on it.

5. Missing image caption wants you to only wash one hand and use no more than 14 drops of water in doing so.


After you've sanitized that hand, click to enlarge.
