I was born in Trenton at Helene-Fuld in ‘79. My entire family worked at GM in Ewing. It was a great childhood. I earned my pilot’s license at Trenton-Mercer Co. Airport in the 90s. My grandfather used to tell me that in Trenton you could lose one job in the morning and have another one by the afternoon. But even as a young kid in the 80s we knew that Perry St. was where all the junkies hung out. This great video must’ve been at the climax of Trenton’s glory days. I left New Jersey in 2010. I’m glad I did.
Trenton never grew up and became progressive, but remained industrial and stuck. Technology was never embraced and remains paralyzed, petrofied and handicapped to the past as an industrial town of production facilities that no longer exist on USA soil. These production "plants", are an abbreviation for "plantation".

This was the early 1960's of my early youth since 1962. A skeleton remains today and has been gone for more than five decades.
Trenton became the exact schematic of John David Rockefeller. "We want a nation of workers not a nation of thinkers"!

Born and raised in Trenton! It WAS a great place to live. Worked for the State for 30 yrs.
Trenton, New Jersey has always been a transient little town with little opportunities and remains the same.
Our neighbor worked at De Laval when i was growing up in 70's. Can't imagine that's still there.
Delavals hasn't been here in 25 yrs.
Some big parts you made ended up on my frigate the U.S.S McCloy.F.F 1038.
They used a lot of asbestos in their finished assemblies for insulation. It didn't work out so well.
Trenton Takes, What the Worlld Doesn't Want.
Ooooohhhhh...... If the narrator only knew of what would become of Trenton!
Sad so true a sad ending to what could have been.
happened to many cities. Not just Trenton

Most companies are gone
And now it's a shithole. Lived here my whole life and it seems to be getting worse.
Trenton used to be so nice.
It really is sad. . .
Substitute "was" for "is"

WHAT THE WORLD REFUSES TRENTON USES...............
Now it is a toilet
At least toilets gets flushed. Trenton is festering.
Left in 1979 thank God. Live in Huntington Beach Ca what a joy. My life would have sucked in Trenton had I not escaped.
Now Trenton is Police, liquor stores, churches and Bodegas. Oh and everyone’s “rich”.
This didn’t age well 😢
1968, less than a year before Trenton died at the hands of a mob.
Handed over this once jewel of a city to Mexico and central America. 3rd world now.
And now look at it. I live here and it suuuuuuuuucks
Trenton is a place you move from, not a place you move to.............
SOMEBODY LOSS THE VISION!!
