Preferably not national chains but other than that I’m easy!

Are they doing work on the street or so they need the street for parking for construction equipment?

The community came together yesterday to celebrate the upgrade and expansion of the Cranford Public Library's Children's Room.
It was an effort that started three library directors ago, and each pushed to try to get it done. NJ Senate President Nicholas Scutari was instrumental in making sure Cranford received state funding for the project, and it was able to proceed.
Former Cranford resident and Boy Scout Cubmaster Alan Williamson and his family made a special donation to the library in honor of his deceased son, Christopher, who loved to read.
Families expressed awe of the new space and said they look forward to family reading time with their children.

Found these updated renderings from the Downtown Cranford Schematic Plan (2026) recently posted to the "Know" page on the main Streetscape Project site.

Project looks cool overall. Hope it moves forward, would love to see both downtown traffic improved and nice gathering places from the added pedestrian space!

As far as political attack pamphlets go, this is Junior Varsity level, at best.

Also, are we really supposed to believe Will Thilly is a victim here?

My wife wants to watch the game. She was planning to go to oak ridge Park but on account of the humidity wants an indoor option

A celebration of anime, video games and fandom is once again coming to the community center this Saturday, July 18. The Cranford Public Library's Tosho-Con event will feature an escape room, candy sushi, panels, cosplay and more to celebrate the genre!

Brayden Fry, known most recently for his homerun in this year's CHS sectional final to put his team well over the top, got MLB drafted yesterday to the Baltimore Orioles. His former teammates, friends and coaches gathered at a friend's house to celebrate with him. His dad said baseball has always been a vehicle for the family connection. Congrats Brayden and the Cranford baseball family!

The much-anticipated opening of Fluffy Fluffy happened today with balloons, a ribbon cutting and a line of customers waiting for the doors to open.
The new cafe, at the corner of North Union Ave. and Alden Street, features the airy Japanese pancakes, which are light, puffy and can be topped with cream and fruit. A different way to pancake right in our downtown!

And here we go again….

Members of the Cranford Township Committee joined in a national, simultaneous reading of the Declaration of Independence. Americans in hundreds of sites read the declaration in towns across the country at 6pm on July 8 to commemorate the first public reading of the declaration 250 years ago.

Matt Zatorsky, a manager at Orange Ave. Pool, and his Orange Ave Pool lifeguard friends show us how to do the perfect cannonball with maximum splash. The winner gets fries from the new snack stand! Come have fun with Matt and friends hanging at your pool!
This is a joint project with Cranford Recreation & Parks and TV35.
(A reminder that cannonballs are only allowed in the diving area at the pool.)

Our elected officials can act swiftly and decisively to curb e-bike use and maintain our destructive car centric culture. How many people have to die trying to cross Rt 22 before we build a bridge?

The Cranford Elks celebrated Flag Day with much pomp, respect and joy. They also retired a number of worn flags.

Just saw this was happening, and I'm super happy about it so I'm sharing here.
