A town square for an unsquare town

redbankgreen

Standing for the vitality of Red Bank, its community, and the fun we have together.

Last week's 'Where Have I Seen This?' featured three views from the site of Shrewsbury's Allen House, a history-drenched property that dates to the late 17th or early 18th century and functioned for many years as a tavern. Now maintained...
Remember: Nothing makes a Red Bank friend happier than to hear "I saw you on Red Bank Green!"

Recognize this idyllic tableau? If so, please feel free to send us an email telling us where you've seen it. Last week's entry turned out to be no challenge for Raeanne Guzzi, Fred Blumberg, Joe Sapienza, Trish DePonti, Alan Fisher,...
Slow week in the 'Where' emailroom last week. Must have been the subdued shot we asked readers to identify. Still, Jenn Woods, Mark Molzon, J.C. Kelly and Trish DePonti took the time to write in, as usual, and each correctly...
The answer to last week's Where Have I Seen This? may turn out to be something of a head-slapper for readers who couldn't identify it, given the prominence of the building it shows. One reader ventured that our photo was...
No. 136 in the series. Of the 13 responses to last week's Where, seven were wrong. So naturally, we at Where Central could not be more delighted. A near-even split! Six readers thought the picture was taken at the Red...
'Where Have I Seen This?' returns this week after taking a Christmas holiday — it's first break since we launched redbankgreen on June 1, 2006. So where does 'Where' go on vacation? We'll never tell. It's a secret. Let's just...
A cadre of ready-for-winter 'Where' regulars had no trouble identifying last week's image. From Michele Lombard, who's apparently electrified by what the object in the photo portends: COULD IT BE OUR TOWN's Prized Logo, the ICEBOAT IN FULL HOLIDAY REGALIA????AH,...
One of the small pleasures of this feature comes from the variety of answers that readers sometimes submit regarding the same image. Last week's 'Where' was an example. One thought it showed the yard of a home on the Middletown...
Sorry this image doesn't enlarge, folks. But if you lean in close, you should be able to generally make out the scene it captures — and maybe even identify the location. If you know it, we'd enjoy hearing from you....
Last week's 'Where' proved a bit obscure, as only one reader identified it — and she had to make a special trip to confirm her hunch. The photo showed an industrial building at 6 River Street in Sea Bright, which...
Another terrific turnout of responses came in on last week's picture. Among the 18 answers we received were just two misfires. One reader thought it was a display from the counter of the 7-11 on Branch Avenue in Little Silver;...
You'd have thought it was a sweltering week in the dead of summer instead of the crisp, Thanksgiving-tinged days of autumn. Last week's Where, showing a blue and white striped fence, attracted 23 responses, which may be a record for...
Mathew Halfacre, 12, of Fair Haven was the first of seven readers to correctly identify last week's photo as the doorway between Hobbymasters and Toymasters, separate businesses that share a building on White Street in Red Bank. According to one...
Cue the eerie music and the menacing cackle... If you know where the above photo was taken, please send us an email. Last week's shot generated a single answer, which was mistaken. It shows the back of a building on...
Last week's image, which showed two pairs of sneakers dangling from overhead utility lines, offered little in the way of reference points. Still, one keen-eyed reader was able to correctly identify it. But first, another reader expressed concern that there's...
The traffic jam of answers to last week's Where that we expected did not come. An indicator, perhaps, that the image was too familiar? For those readers still puzzled, the photo shows those decorative steel sphere thingies that line both...
Ah, you know this one. Right? Please drop us a note to tell us where you've seen it. Last week's photo was a no-brainer for a number of Where regulars (and yes, you can become one, too! There are no...
Mike Halfacre thought last week's shot was taken at the Barefoot Bride accessories shop in Fair Haven, where he's the mayor. Mark Molzon guessed Mustillo's, the landmark bridal gown boutique on Broad Street in Red Bank. They were last week's...
Two readers — Mark Molzon and Guy Johnson — recognized last weeks' Where as the former Interstate Battery garage on West Front St. We also got two mistaken answers, one of which was "the lighthouse at Sandy Hook," which we...
Step right up if you think you can identify the location of this week's Where, folks. The email in-basket is now accepting entries. In fact, it's overdue for some. Last week's image drew no responses at all. The location of...
