These signs are perfectly readable if you're already on the lot somewhere between these cars and the back end of the building:

Holy Trinity Church is such a great structure to photograph from all sides. These three photos were taken in the back.

Does anyone know the function of what's shown in the first picture?

Does Bruce still own and run that store ?  And I wonder what he think's of Bob's.

"Bob's........." what? Bob's Stores?

The first four pictures were taken right by the river, the fifth on Main, and the sixth on a very uneven-looking Anderson St, which appears to have a downhill component and too many wires and streetlights (one is on) above it........and the yellow lines don't come close to lining up before and after the tracks.

City getting boat ramp into Hackensack River

The Record

HACKENSACK — The city will soon get a boat ramp into the Hackensack River for use by emergency responders, City Manager Stephen Lo Iacono said this week.

The boat slip will be built as part of the Court Street Bridge replacement project that is under way, Lo Iacono told the City Council during their Tuesday night meeting.

He said county officials and project contractor Joseph Sanzari agreed to pay for the construction. He said the city would be in charge of paying for required state Department of Environmental Protection permits and an engineering study, which he said would cost about $20,000.

"We've had a couple of false starts on this project in the past," he said. "Money has been an issue, and DEP, and proper location."

The ramp will be used only by emergency services in the city and in surrounding areas, and will not be open for general public use, he said.

Lo Iacono said the ramp will allow boats to get into the water faster if someone falls in or flooding forces evacuations near the river.

I found two more - one on River St and a two-for-one on Main St:

I noticed that I took a bunch of photos of signs on my extended shoot yesterday, including a sign about signs:







According to these signs, it'll cost certain segments of the population $2.00 less on particular days of the week to use a crosswalk (don't laugh - it'll happen someday):







How do I know that? I asked this person:







However, I forgot to ask the consultant where the missing letters on these two Main Street businesses are:







Speaking of missing letters, we all know the Bowler City sign with the changeable messages, but did you ever look at its other side?







Got a dirty hand?







Gotta make the Editor happy:







I wasn't aware that there was a new high school in town:







Enough confusing signs for you here on Anderson Street?







This is a compressed shot. I was standing on the NE corner of Union and Anderson about 3 blocks away, taking a picture of a train coming into the station and blew up this part of the picture when I saw all the signs.


Time to sign off..........

I love the window picture. I wonder what's living in there.

I'm told that the black rhino lives there because it's close to his job.
