    It's a shame most residents don't realize this treasure, only costs 5 dollars to visit,,,,.
    What a thrill for the price.

      Totally agree, I took the tour last year and it was really something to see.

    Great about this bed, but WHERE did the cool light go that was hanging over the front door of the Columbia/Reading Railroad building (on Bank Avenue) ? It added just the right finishing touch there and now it's gone. Anyone know where it went?

    I believe it is a maintenance issue.

    Wires are dangling, but they appear to be capped.

    Two windows (back of building, at the top, near roof) have plywood covering them.

    Well historic Ave J and bank Ave are famous for illegal activity.
    Which has been repeatedly stated by me self to the boro. Yet I found a needle and a spoon just this week by Rivertown antiques.
    Many people requested Ave J be closed to vehicula7r . .Why it's been 3 years and not a damn thing has been done?
