On the road to Princeton: The move is complete

It is official. We have closed shop in Dayton and have moved to Princeton. We'll have more news in a while — including how to reach everyone. It's been a nice run here and I promise that we'll continue to provide a level of coverage of South Brunswick, Cranbury, Jamesburg and Monroe that I believe no one can match.

  1. Oh, damn, that is sad – I don\’t remember precisely when the Central Post first moved to Dayton, I do recall it at some point being in the Danis Bldg. on Rt. 27 (not the realty bldg attached to the house. on New but the office bldg next to the Exxon on Rt. 27). Probably was somewhere else before that being as the Post began in 1958. But I well remember the offices in the old grey house at the corner of Ridge (Rt. 522) and Georges Rd. in downtown Dayton, circa 1982, back when Trilla Ramidge had your job. (some day I\’ll explain to you how I ended up working for the Packet at all, but it had to do with a) Trilla was engaged to my brother, b) I went to school with Ed Burke\’s kids, and c) Dick Willever was out of town). Thus closes a 50-year chapter in community journalism – I\’m sure you can hold down the fort from Witherspoon St., Hank, but it won\’t be quite as easy. (You might as Mr. Kilgore for the opportunity to do an insert celebrating 50 years in south Brunswick, but that would involve money and stuff and we know how Jim feels about that … )

  2. Sorry to say, I don\’t think that\’s a good move for South Brunswick. It\’s a loss of a community paper. Guess we\’ll have to blame the internet. Now we\’ll get regurgitated Princeton stuff and filler that can be reused among all the family of papers.
