Bob Colmorgen did it again, identifying last week's shot as a boarded-up door at the former Anderson Brothers cold-storage warehouse at Monmouth Street and Bridge Avenue. Bob, a longtime Red Bank fireman in who continues to volunteer though he now...

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

Reader David Wilson was the first to identify last week's image: a statue at the entrance to Parker-Sickles Park in Little Silver. Bob Colmorgen got it, also. On a hunch, enroute from the family homestead to his residence in Eatontown,...

We have a winner, and her last name does not begin with Colmorgen. Michele Lombard was the first of two Red Bankers to correctly identify last week's painted smile as the emblem from, well, The Perfect Smile dental practice on...

We had just one response to last week's picture, and damn if it wasn't yet another correct one from Carl Colmorgen. That's five Colmorgens in a row, for those keeping count. How is it that a guy can return to...

Folks, we have our first 'Where' grand slam, with the fourth Colmorgen family member in a row taking a victory trot around the bases. Carl Colmorgen of Oakland Street was the first reader to identify last week's image, which showed...

Big, big turnout for last week's 'Where,' with lots of correct responses. Answer: Navesink River Road at the corner of Cherry Street, between the North Jersey Coast Line and Poricy Brook Pond. The photo shows a utility pole dressed up...

'OK, this will be an easy one,' we're tempted to say this week. But we won't, because whenever we do say that, we're surprised to discover that what we thought was obvious and universally recognized is not. So, folks, let's...

The sight of the red barn featured in last week's 'Where' drew votes for Sycamore Avenue in Shrewsbury, the entrance to Sickels Market in Little Silver, and Church Lane, also in Little Silver. All interesting choices, harking back to places...

Yeah, we're feeling a bit postcard-y this week. It may have something to do with last week's photo, which showed a utility structure of some kind next to a cyclone fence. Four observant readers correctly identified the building's location: it's...

If the question was "What is it?" this one would be too easy. Obviously, it's a Red Bank residence assessed at the townwide average of $404,981. Kidding. That unpainted door's got to knock a couple of hundred bucks off the...

For the first 'Where' of Spring 2007, we present what could be the final snow scene for the next nine or ten months. Yes, we know how broken up you are about this. Us, too. But the cold hasn't kept...

There were two big surprises (for the redbankgreen staff, that is) arising from last week's 'Where.' One was the strong number of responses, most of them correct. The other was the guess from someone who we like to think of...

No one correctly identified the the location of last week's 'Where,' showing a statue of a slicker-wearing fisherman. Which surprised us. We would have thought there were some avid statuary aficionados out there. In fact, we still believe that. Come...

Is this a sign of what a litigious society we live in? Last week's shot, showing a drop box for a courier service to the legal profession, attracted a respectable number of responses, all but one of them correct. (The...

One thing Erin Visalli wanted to accomplish — and who among our readers doesn't identify with this? — was to win a 'Where.' Ever since her neighbor, multiple 'Where' champ Jenn Woods, turned her onto redbankgreen, Erin's wanted a piece...

No readers identified last week’s ‘Where,’ so the pot grows to $130 million. Oh, beg your pardon — that’s not us. That’s the MegaMillions lottery game. All this ice seems to have given us a case of brain freeze. The...

We're back in the game! After a dry spell (for us), three—count 'em—three 'Where' devotees identified last week's image. It shows a door on the Monmouth Street building that houses Fins & Feathers pet store and, upstairs, part of Buona...

Confession time: it hurts. It's probably our own fault, because it usually is when this happens. But still, it hurts. For two weeks in a row, the 'Where' in-box has sat idle and nearly empty. Not a single entry, not...

It can be feast or famine here in the land of 'Where.' You'll recall that our last entry — showing the brick facade around the JCP&L substation in Fair Haven, aka the "building dickey" — brought an unprecedented number of...

We'd heard it called "Mrs. Watt's house" before. But "building dickey?" That one was new. Last week's 'Where' generated not only a record number of responses—all of them substantially correct—but some amusing takes on a structure meant to suggest something...
