I love these photos! I grew up in Berkeley Heights, which is *exactly* that kind of bedroom community (and proud of it, unfortunately) -- though there's been a real boom in mixed-use buildings and multi-unit housing in town over the past few years, and for the first time the town actually feels like it has a town center. Can't wait for more of these explorations, and I'm really enjoying digging into your writing!

When I think of Flemington I usually think of the NJ-31/US-202 traffic circle. Good to be reminded of the "other" Flemington.
Ha, did you see this post? https://thedeletedscenes.substack.com/p/roadside-revisits
We did lots of shopping in the various stores around the circle, but always loved the old town. Italian ice at Jack's Pizza - the best!
