I got an update on the Broad St. Bank from the
developer and I've looked through a copy of the
plans. None of the units are particulararly oversized
so hopefully the rents will be comensurate. BTW -
the building will be ALL rental. Also, it looks like there
will be "off street" parking available.
Reports from friends who've toured the building are good. I couldn't accept an invitation to do a walk through last week due to a work committment ... pesky work committments. The developer sought and received a 30 year tax break from city council last week so don't count on the building converting to condo anytime soon. Schedule:
You can get on the rental application mailing list by adding your address to the Trenton Lofts contact list or by contacting the developer directly. |

The electrical and plumbing are done and the
contractor is closing up the building.
8 Peace St. was designed by Rich Carroll of Carroll Architects. Rich has done several projects in Trenton and is a big supporter of the effort to re- purpose existing Trenton structures. He's turned 8 Peace St. into a good example of what can be done to update an old building. |

Michelle and I went on a tour of the Adams One
building a couple of weeks ago. The developer was
nervous that we would see it before all of the work
was done. They needn't have worried.
I've updated my comments about Adams One but the highlights are: great workout room, nice library, plenty of upside in the neighborhood and good prices/SF for a new remodeled condo in Trenton. |

The Trenton Makes building has housed a group of
artists for several years and is next to the Conduit
Music Club. It's across from the street from the
Soverign Bank Arena and the future Performa
Entertainment Area.
Annie and Roland Pott own and operate the building which includes several storefronts and a restaurant. The Pott's are very active in supporting the city and in particular the arts in Trenton. |

Anne Labatte (well none Trenton Arts Supporter and
commercial realtor) is putting together artistsan
studio space in downtown. It's conveniently near
the Marriott Hotel, Gallery 125 and Gallery on
Lafayette St. Almost as important it's steps away
from Cafe Ole where many of Trenton's area artists
conspire on creative projects.

If you don't get the Trenton Downtowner you'll have
missed my article called Map to Cool Trenton. It
occured to me that the only way a person can
navigate a new city is by being told about the nice
parts. A healthy portion of the arts and
entertainment that happens in Trenton happens in
the Cool part that I outline in the article.
