MARLTON AVENUE begins at Federal Street, and is for all practical intents and purposes an extension of State Street, which runs east from the Delaware River, across the Cooper River and the Pavonia railroad yards to Federal Street. Marlton Avenue continues eastwards to the city limits at Highland Avenue. Marlton Avenue is one of the five major streets in East Camden, the others being Westfield Avenue, Twenty-Seventh Street, Baird Boulevard, and of course Federal Street. The intersection of Marlton Avenue and Federal Street has over the decades been quite prominent. Various businesses have located there, including a saloon, a car dealership, a 7-11 convenience store, a fast-food restaurant, and a laundromat. In 2009 a new elementary school, the Thomas H. Dudley School, was erected on the southeast corner. This school replaces the school which bore the same name and which was located on North 23rd Street between High Street and Federal Street. |

persons were injured in an automobile crash at Admiral
Wilson and Baird
Boulevards yesterday when a machine driven by a Camden man was in
collision with an automobile driven by a Bridgeton man. The
most seriously injured was John Kaus, Jr., 19, of 1738 Tioga
Street. He suffered a severed tendon of
the
right hand. Walter Connell, of 27 Marlton Avenue, driver of one machine,
was cut about the head. Anthony Batani, of Bridgeton, driver of the other car, was cut about the hands. J. R. Boston, of 718 Pearl Street, took all the injured to West Jersey Homeopathic Hospital.

April 17, 2009 Fire on Marlton Pike Curt Hudson Video April 17, 2009. Companies were dispatched to a building fire at the Dollar Store and Marlton Ave. and Benson St. First companies in reported heavy smoke from a strip of stores. The battalion chief hit a second alarm and then a third within just a few more minutes. The Dollar Store was becoming well-involved and smoke was showing from the entire row of the one-story building, about 200 feet long. It took about three hours to get the fire under control, but the entire building was destroyed. Two firefighters and a police officer suffered smoke inhalation. This video starts about 15 minutes into the job. All firefighters had been ordered out of the building by this time due to rapidly deteriorating conditons. Please watch in full-screen mode...... |
