The Trenton Battle Monument (far left), 

situated on the site where the Colonial artillery 

fired into the small city during the First Battle of 

Trenton, still retains a sense of grandeur.

The solid townhouse of West State Street, now used for offices, calls to mind another age. 

The Trenton Trust Building is one of Trenton's skyscrapers. 

The Civil War Memorial is in Cadwalader Park, an urban park designed by Frederick Laws Olmstead.
