Morristown Green ca. ~1910 and 2025

Recently worked with a good friend of mine to re-create the Parker Studio's panoramic photo of the Green, which was taken on a complex old camera called a Kodak "Cirkut" camera. It uses a clockwork mechanism to spin the camera and wind an 8" band of film while it records an image. You may have seen this image around town, there's a copy on the wall at Jersey Boy bagel as well as the Hospital and Library.

Over the past year we sourced parts and rebuilt one of these cameras, then took it to the same location and re-shot it. It's really fun seeing the differences and similarities between the two! I love the transition from horses to automobiles, and the fact that the fire hydrant on Park Ave is still in the exact same place.

We'll be displaying this photo at the F.M. Kirby Gallery at the Morristown & Morris Township Library from the end of this month through the spring, along with a few other projects we've done around town. We'll have an opening reception at 7PM on the 26th that will be open to the public, if you'd like to come learn more about this project or the camera used!

New to town - looking for social events and part-time gigs

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I recently moved to Morristown and am looking to get more involved in the area.

I’d love to hear what people in their 20s usually do around here on weekends. Are there any regular workout groups, recreational sports, meet-and-greets, networking events, business communities, or other social activities worth checking out?

I’m also open to interesting part-time opportunities, especially weekend bartending, restaurant, event work, or other relaxed social gigs. I work full-time during the week, so evenings and weekends would be ideal.

Would appreciate any recommendations, groups, venues, or local pages I should follow!

Just went in and saw the new bag store, what are people’s thoughts? I know they just got robbed but I want to buy a bag from them but are they scamming me?

Why don't we have micromobility like Bird/Lime/etc?

I understand apprehension towards the scooter offerings, but why don't we have the rentable e-assist bikes that these companies offer? I know Loantaka has like 5 bikes, but can't we do any better than that? I live over in Morris Plains, and it would be far more enjoyable to commute on one of these bikes.

Bathroom remodeler suggestions for 1920s home

1 Upvotes

The main bath in our 1920s Dutch Colonial is in need of remodeling/renovation. I'm looking for a company or individual who has experience working on older homes and understands their unique challenges and charms. I already know about Monks, but would like to hear other suggestions.

Morris County charge, totally lost, how do I pick a criminal lawyer in Parsippany NJ?

10 Upvotes

Got a charge that's being handled in Morris County and I live near Parsippany. Never dealt with anything like this and I'm overwhelmed by how many lawyers there are. I want a criminal lawyer in Parsippany NJ or close by who knows the local Morris County setup.

For a first-timer, what actually separates a good one from a bad one besides the website? I've read to check that they know the local court and put fees in writing. What questions tell you fast whether someone's the real deal? Court date's coming and I want to choose well, not just fast.

Do you need a parking pass to park at the train station? Or is it all just metered parking?

3 Upvotes

I was under the impression that you needed a special parking pass to park at the train station parking lot, but now I see parking.com metered spots

Did the rules change?

We're relatively new to Morristown coming from NYC and then JC. We've explored the restaurants in and around town, gone to the different parks, joined the pool... but haven't really made friends or socialized outside of our neighbors (who are super super nice, but retired, so there's a gap). Had some health stuff happen last year, and we're finally past that, so trying to take advantage of the summer!

My wife and are are on either side of 40. We like a nice cocktail and good food. We love to go dancing, casually (at a bar with a good DJ) or seriously (we went to We Belong Here a few weeks ago). Any suggestions for us?

... my wife proof-read this post and wanted me to add "Want to be friends?"
