[edit] Spelling

It seems strange that a bridge in the United States would use the British/Canadian spelling. Can anyone confirm that the spelling is correct? --Jrsnbarn 18:16, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Most old maps, back to 1853, show the street as Centre Street: [1] This spelling is also used in newspaper articles: [2] --NE2 20:28, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Taft Place / NJ Railroad Ave

Taft Place and NJ Railroad Ave. are 2 separate streets in town. NJRR Ave has been in existence for a long time, Taft Place came to be in the late 1970's/early 1980's and these 2 streets parallel one another.

Taft Place named for William Taft (councilman, Board of Education, Teacher)

NJ Railroad Ave, is named for railroad that runs along side it

If any further info is needed please let me know.
