Remember: Nothing makes a Red Bank friend happier than to hear "I saw you on Red Bank Green!"

It's turning into a break-out-the-Champagne kind of week for downtown Red Bank. First came news last week that Tiffany & Co plans to open one of its high-end emporiums on Broad Street. Now there's a poll released Monday by Monmouth...

First, in late June, we featured the ladder in a tree in our 'Where Have I Seen This?' feature. Then came the complaints from neighbors. Not funny, they said, in essence. In fact, downright dangerous. Not to mention ugly. So...

Last week's 'Where' had barely been up an hour when, just before 1a Thursday, Dylan Barlett emerged from the velvety darkness to claim his latest win. "Lunch Break," he wrote. "Also, your email links are broken." We've been known to...

Jenn Woods of Red Bank, who was narrowly edged out by David Prown in the e-mail race of correct answers to 'Where' no. 13, is the clear winner of contest no. 14. Having grown up in Little Silver and lived...

We have no winners from last week's 'Where.' So no, it wasn't a window display from the Red Bank Antiques Center, as one reader guessed. It's a window display from Bain's Hardware in Sea Bright. A little off our usual...

Maria Ursino of Little Silver was the first to correctly identify the location of last week's conjoined metal shed and brick building as the Anderson Moving and Storage Warehouse at the corner of Bridge and Monmouth Streets. Maria grew up...

Dog-walkin' visual artist Wendy Born Hollander was the only reader to correctly identify last week's 'Where,' which showed the number 61 above the word 'office' and a bent arrow. It's a sign painted on a small building on West Street,...

So much for reflexively ascribing virtues to people without first checking our facts. It turns out Dayna Stein of the Dueling Steins hasn’t been sitting out the recent weeks of ‘Where’ simply to give other readers a chance to win,...

Leave it to a guy who spends his days tarring roofs and uses the name "hotmop" in his e-mail address to be first to guess the location of last week's Where, which showed a rusting ladder in a dying tree....

It's official: this game has been liberated from the iron grip of the Dueling Steins, Dayna and Larry. We have a new champion, Dylan Barlett of Little Silver, who correctly identified last week's image as the giant emblem painted on...

We're not sure what to make of the responses to last week's WHERE HAVE I SEEN THIS, mainly because, well, there weren't any. Not a one. So does that mean we totally stumped everyone, even the dueling Steins, Dayna &...

Things are about to get rather messy at the Red Bank Public Library. A $1.6 million renovation that could take up to a year is set to begin as soon as next week. But here's a possible consolation for some...

The winner of last week's hotly contested WHERE HAVE I SEEN THIS? is Dayna Stein, who correctly identified the face shown as part of the mildly creepy (our words, not hers) statue called "Water's Edge" at the Monmouth Early Childhood...

OK, so that was dumb. Last week, in the premier edition of redbankgreen, we asked readers to tell us where a photo was taken (see below on this page), with answers to be sent via Comments. But it turns out...

First, our apologies to Deborah Harry for blowing her cover—if that's what we're doing. But surely all flame-haired singers and actresses who patronize the Red Bank Post Office on Broad Street know that some day, one way or another, they're...

Recognize this image? Tell us where you think this picture was taken. The plan is to regularly feature memory-challenging images in this space. Eventually, we hope to give away prizes for correct guesses, but we’re not set up for that...
