I had a big North Newark route planned out today but spent much of my time checking out three places on just two blocks of Broadway between 2nd and Arlington.

First, the old Benefit Mutual Life Insurance Building on the corner of 2nd.

Next the Mt Pleasant Cemetery, by far the most interesting cemetery in Newark. It’s very old, historic, beautiful and well maintained, and is a perfect place for a stroll. Shown are the front gate, a large mausoluem, a cobblestone path and the Newark firemans’ graveyard.

Then right across the street is the feudal gothic style Newark Police 2nd Precinct building.

Needless to say I didn’t complete my trip but tomorrow it’s supposed to be 70º so . . . .
