Bloomfield Station

Bloomfield Station

This is the Bloomfield station where I catch the train into the City every day. It’s a shame that this part of it is in such a state of disrepair — especially considering the other side just got a nice facelift — but politics have apparently gotten in the way of its restoration and the surrounding area’s revitalization. It would be nice to see a development plan that balances local flavor with notable franchises, a small movie theater and a good selection of restaurants because I’d rather not drive up to Montclair whenever we want to find something new and interesting to eat, and this part of town is a nice walking distance from our house.
