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...

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

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...

It seems we were overdue for a 'Where' out of Rumson, because the responses came pouring in on last week's posting, which, yes, showed a carriage house on Buena Vista Avenue in that borough. Todd Weidman of Little Silver beat...

Recognize the structure above? An Email with your best guess about its location would be welcome. Ralph Brandi was the first to call last week's 'Where:' the ice machine outside Chris' Deli on West Front Street in the River Plaza...

Last week's 'Where,' we figured, was an easy one. And, in fact, several readers wrote in to correctly identify the image: a fire hydrant wrapped in black plastic on River Road in Fair Haven, near the corner of Lincoln Avenue....

Garden gnome put out for trash pickup? Street sculpture? Munchkin in a rainproof burka? Perhaps the arresting figure shown here isn't such a mystery to you. But where is it? If you know, or think you do, Email your guesses...

We're not quite sure what to make of it when not even one reader correctly identifies a 'Where' entry. Does it mean that we've gone too obscure? Too obvious for those who know the answer to even bother writing in?...

See, kids? This is where having a particular expertise comes in handy. Retromedia Sound Studios owner John Noll used his specialized knowledge in sound technology to identify last week's 'Where' as a picture of a loudspeaker atop 1 Broad Street,...

Christine Jahnig of Red Bank was the first of several readers to recognize the site of last week's photo, which showed, in her words, "a lovely...formal boxwood maze." The well-tended topiary can be found on Sycamore Avenue in Shrewsbury, just...

Last week's 'Where' showed a a drab, boarded-up shop with eye-catching turquoise trim. We can now reveal that the building is located on Cedar Avenue in Fair Haven. And it seems fitting that the first person to identify it was...

Never mind 'Where have I seen this?' The question Kim Sandbach hopes will soon be on everyone's mind is, 'What's That Smell?' Believe it or not, What's That Smell is the name of Sandbach's new business, a fragrance, cosmetics and...

Last week's 'Where' drew an interesting mix of respondents, including Mike Halfacre, who was elected mayor of Fair Haven on Tuesday night (congratulations, Mike), and Red Bank roofer Joe Ruffini, who tells us he used to climb on the object...

Alicia Woods of Little Silver stepped up, so to speak, and identified last week's 'Where' as a set of concrete steps between parking areas at the First Presbyterian Church at Red Bank. Tower Hill, that is. Congrats to Alicia, who...

The three-D stainless-steel letters spelling out the name of a now-departed business was, perhaps, a dead giveaway for last week's entry. Which probably explains why an unusual number of readers got it. But once again, the fleet-fingered Dylan Barlett got...

It's a sad tale, or so we imagine, of a tree limb that grew too close to a wire, and then around the wire, and then became orphaned, clinging to the wire as the tree from which it grew was...

We had two readers venture that last week's image of a brick wall with a spectral silhouette of a house inlaid in it was from the Red Bank Middle School. Sorry, no. And otherwise, the guess box was devoid of...
