Scenes From Watchung and Downtown

The red Roses have faded momentarily and now the yellow Coreopsis is starring at City Hall.
A sunny sight!
Someone pointed out this leftover holiday banner at Watchung & Front, suggesting it might not go with the flag display for the upcoming July Fourth parade (which is on July 6).
The planters are all spiffed up for summer and the parade. Hooray for the red, white and ... purple?
Merchandise on the sidewalk? Not allowed, unless it's Sidewalk Sales Day.
Text while walking and you are likely to bump into one of the many advertising signs dotting the sidewalk.
Look up and you will see proof that Plainfield's downtown has been open for business for 128 years and counting.

  1. Hi Bernice,

    There are many holiday signs still around near Watchung and Front. I reported this to the city months ago, as Plainfield's Christmas decorations are ugly enough as it is, so let's take them down in an orderly fashion.

  2. Why do people have to spit their gum out on the sidewalk? Pigs raised in a barn? Looks horrible and is extremely difficult to remove
