That they would send a letter to our representatives asking for them to push through S-1 or to grant us an extension.

They also committed to putting a bullet point list together so residents can mail letters to our representatives asking for S-1 to be moved through and passed.

You could argue it, but it wouldn't make sense. The Hardware store went out after the Home Depot opened, the Pharmacy lost when all the chains started hitting the area and the Deli had numerous health issues. Parking would not have solved either and those businesses replacing them do not draw as many people. So even if parking would have saved them there should have been space opened up when they exited. Since the replacements don't draw the same crowds.


A point of clarification. Our pharmacy was actually bought out by Eckard (as was the Hightstown and Jamesburg pharmacies) and closed so as to eliminate competition for their new pharmacies in Monroe and in the McCafferies strip mall. It did not lose it was bought out and closed.

That was a dumb move on Eckard's part then since there are closer alternatives to the stores they were trying to promote with the closers. So they paid money to send people to the competition.

And I would also like to state the deli did not close for health reasons. When it was the Cranbury Market - it was sold to John Davison who made it Hannah and Massons who then moved it down the street and the building sat there until it became the chinese resuraunt...get your facts straight people!!!!!!

Hannah and Masons was not a deli. The owner of the deli who sold it so it to John so it could become Hannah and Masons was in trouble with the health department.

The Pharmacy was sold because it couldn't compete and there was money on the table to sell it at a profit. I remember having many discussions in there when the decision was being wrestled with to sell.

Get your own facts straight.

Interestingly the Eckard at southfield was closed within two years. Your tone is idiotic. The facts are straight. I am sorry they don't fit the story you like to tell. But don't let the facts stop you please continue to make some up.

My tone was in response to your tone. The facts you want to put forward are wrong or you want to make things look better. Perhaps your one of those who feel all we need is parking to make the businesses succeed.

BTW, I am not saying the deli was shut down by the health department. I am saying people made complaints and that owner was looked at by the health department. I know many people who would not eat there or get food there at the end.
