The railroad development around I850 was responsible for the future growth ot Phillipsburg. The completion of the first lll railroad to our community, the New Jersey Central, occurred on 'July 2, l852. Within I0 years our town became at railroad centerwflshoywn here is a' train entering the New Jersey Central Railroad Station in Union Square. 1 ll ii H X 4 ' - ' l u X . -' ix, My i. X , Q . - -,, V , V . rf town had three hotels and twoistoresilljne of the hotels, the Union Square Hotel still stands today. A great change occurred in our community with the building of railroads and the Morris Canal. Through these Phillipsburg became strongly linked with the outside world. Because Phillipsburg is centrally located , T between Philadelphia and New York5 our town. t'll T developed into a transportation center. A A This opened the way for the foundingfof the Foundry-and later the Andover Iron Works. These. y lthriving industries provided employment for the townfsliy lliilii men. T In a typical family scene, as father galloped off to work on his horse, mother prepared for a long hard day. Sending Junior to the River for water, mother pulled out her scrub board and began to wash the clothes. Then it was off to the loom to weave and sew and at noon, to the fireplace to cook. Mother was endlessly doing the household tasks. Still the people of 1861 advantagesfsuch was a more intimate aissociationfandliyahsimpliersodial life. The tranquility of those early liyl bfeen r y supplemented by the accelerated tempo ll S of modern life in Phillipsburg. i . l Thefftuture development ot our town was insured with the com- pletion of the Morris Canal. Cost- ing S3.500,000, the Morris Canal was l02 miles in length and sup- plied with water from Lalce Ho- patcong. gggu,-lm -- ----e.ee'- -- --s-ss-- -A-Ne. msswss-Ns.-,,..a.. sw' K YYYVYYYYYV .N........s--.er,,,,,- W -- --
