Trinity Hall - Princeton New Jersey Greater Mercer County Area - Featured Hot Spots for the week of July 14th, 2008

This is the second of my weekly series of "Featured Hot Spots" I'll be posting. If there is something you'd like to add or would like featured don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Princeton has always been a fond memory to me.   As a child,  my grandmother lived in Princeton and my brother and I spent many a summer day at Gram's house.   Impi Daniels my grandmother "Gram" will be 100 years young this month.   This one is for you Gram, Love ya!!

Princeton was every kids dream, with all the history and charm just walking the streets.      My grandmother actually shared the company of Albert Einstein when she worked at the university as part of the maintenance workers.   One of my favorite stops was always the Princeton Public Library  we would spend hours just reading.

Princeton University Princeton is not just home to an Ivy League school, it is also a historical landmark filled with culture and leisure activities.  You can tour through 18th and 19th-century buildings or wander through Princeton's Battlefield State Park

If  shopping is more your thing, you will be interested in visiting Palmer Square, one of the area's most upscale shopping venues with everything from clothing to specialty foods, home furnishings, and custom stationery. 

Princeton is also well known for it's five-star amenities. You can get anything from a hamburger and fries to places like Mediterra and one of my personal favorites favorites The Ferry House.   For some after dinner drinks, you may want to check out Triumph Brew Pub

After a good meal and a nice stroll through this historic town, a great way to end the evening if you're in the mood to laugh you can go to Catch a Rising Star Comedy Club.

Desiree, Princeton most certainly is a New Jersey hot spot.  I toured the campus and applied to school there, but ended up going to their rival to the south, University of Pennsylvania.  My fondest memories of Princeton were sitting in that stadium you've got pictured and watching the Penn football team in an Ivy League smackdown of the Princeton Tigers.

Desiree,

I think the idea of profiling different locations is a great idea. It really gives people a sense for what we have to offer here in New Jersey.   I may have to borrow your idea :-)

My mother- in- law lives close by, and when we go there we never have anything to do.  The comedy show and the tours seem like a good time to check out the next time we are there.

Hi Dez...Princeton is an absolutely charming community.  I was very impressed while there with my daughter.  So much in fact I pulled into an intersection on the main street not knowing which way I wanted to go.  I sat there until my daughter nudged me and said there was a policeman staring at me as I sat under the traffic light.

That whole area of New Jersey is so different from what most folks see driving up and down I-95.  I was just there Monday (I-95 and the Garden State) on my way up to Connecticut to see my mom who is a mere 91.  I'll be passing by the way again on Friday, (Saturday and Sunday appointments).

You are so fortunate to have your grandmother.

You have a perfect spot there in Princeton.

Kate
