Thanks for this video. I left NJ just a few years ago but this is where I grew up and I miss it. I used to walk these streets all the time. You almost drove right by my old house.
A neat drive through Plainfield, NJ. I also like the fact that you put the name of the roadway you're driving on, whether it is a highway or a city street. It helps me to follow you on a map.
My family moved out of the area in late-1975, but I remember many of the major streets; I learned to swim (underground) in the Plainfield JCC (a giant brick cube!). A lot of things look the same (including the piles of fallen brown leaves!), and a lot look different.
Plainfield looks pretty good. Homes are well kept up and streets are clean. I remember when Bambergers was on Front St. I taught at Plainfield High in the 1970s so passing the school and library was interesting. I knew most of the streets except for some of the side roads. Kind of drove around in circles. Wondered if they would pass Muhlenberg Hospital although it may no longer be there. It looks like the Queen City has improved over the last decade and may be a desirable place to live although I wonder if the school system is still bad.
I live here. Great city to move to. A lot has been updated since we moved here in 2014 and even more since the last time I was here back in the 90's. The area has been getting renovations all over.
I grew up in Plainfield from the very late 80s up to when I graduated high school in the early 2000s. I still go back to visit since I have family living close by. It’s amazing to see how Plainfield has changed over the last 30 years. Right across from where the McDonald’s on W. Front St is located used to be a big empty field where the circus with a Ferris wheel would come during the summer. Now the field is home to businesses, a bank and a parking lot.
You didn't get to the best part of Plainfield. You most of the southeast. The only farm in the city possibly the county. Big mansion to a cape cod. Brisbane. Cook pond, netherwood. Sleepy hollow. I only know the neighborhoods in my corner of Plainfield.
I love this footage I frequent it when I want to want to remember home.

Awesome drive through Downtown Plainfield NJ

Plainfield was on a “worst place to live” list I came across on the internet. From your video, on the contrary, looks nice!
I always come here with my mom on weekends
my town❤❤
Majority of my family came from here, they were hard working Italians.. But by the end of the 1960's almost all of them had moved out of town.
The first factory on the right when the video starts. Was the old Mack truck factory?

Looking good PLFD was this before the fire downtown?
