BROADWAY in Camden..... a legendary street, once the "Mall of South Jersey". Running south west of 6th Streets past Ferry Avenue and then all the way to Gloucester City, and eventually on to Woodbury, Broadway was extended north from its beginning at Market Street through to the Delaware River (Ben Franklin) Bridge toll plaza in the 1920s. When Camden began its period of industrial growth and expansion after the Civil War, the intersections of Broadway and Federal Street, Broadway and Kaighn Avenue, and Broadway and Ferry Avenue became anchor locations in the civic and commercial life of Camden and the surrounding areas. Homes and businesses soon filled in the "empty spaces" between these intersections. During the 1890s and the first two decades of the 20th Century, Camden-based contractor John J. Welsh was known in the city as "the man who built Broadway", as his firm was involved with a great many projects along the thoroughfare. Brothers George M. Holl and Lewis F. Holl also completed many projects during these years. James H. Reeve, who had worked for Welsh as a foreman, remodeled many of the homes, including those on the Holl Block, between Stevens and Mickle Streets, for business purposes. Reeve and his sons also built three theatres on Broadway, the Lyric, the Towers, and the Princess. In
1938 a proposal was floated to widen Broadway as a state highway
project. This went nowhere.
When Camden began its economic decline in the 1950s, Broadway suffered right along with it. Broadway became in many ways the symbol of Camden's economic fall. Although there have been some new buildings erected in recent years, most significantly the Walter Rand Transportation Center between Broadway and Mickle Streets, far too much of Broadway in June of 2004 consists of vacant lots and boarded up buildings. |

COP ON LEDGE THRILLS HUNDREDS DRAWN BY FALSE BURGLAR ALARM Several hundred persons, attracted by the loud ringing of a burglar alarm at the King jewelry store, 4 Broadway, watched Patrolman John V. Wilkie last night as he climbed over the roof of the building and across a narrow ledge to an open second story window to investigate the alarm. Failing to find anyone, Wilkie climbed back, over the ledge to the roof after finding himself locked in the building. A score of police detectives and motorcycle patrolmen answered the alarm. William Schoeffling, manager of the jewelry concern, was notified of the "false alarm." |

1936-1950s Here's an item that shows that my Uncle, Lester R. Dilts, had an office at 106 S. Broadway, at least in the late '30's into the early '50's. He and his staff not only represented Superior Life Insurance CO., but also the Home Insurance Company of New York, which was much like current Homeowner's insurance. I have many memories, as a young boy, from the office windows, watching train traffic crossing Broadway on the old bridge (viaduct) right outside the window! Curt Parrish |

CRASH FOILS THIEVES Thieves who used a
ladder to remove a second-story window from Corbett's Kut Price Drug
Store, 725 Broadway,
were frightened away early yesterday when the window crashed. Mrs. Prossie
Corbett, proprietor of
the
store, asleep in her bedroom in another part of the building, told the
police she heard no noise. The ladder, recently used by painters at the store, was discovered by David Hawkes, a private watchman in the neighborhood, at 4 a. m. He called the police and Detectives Leon Branch and George Zeitz responded. According to them, the thieves removed the window by using a brace and bit. |

1920s Camden Courier-Post |
A
wakened by a noise at 3 a. m. yesterday, Mrs. Prossie Corbett,
proprietor of a drug store at 725 Broadway,
looked out of her third-story bedroom window and saw a man get in a car
and hurriedly
drive away. Mrs.
Corbett, whose store burglars
attempted to enter last Friday by climbing a ladder and removing a
window on the second floor, fired three shots to attract the police,
but the car already had disappeared down Broadway. A
few moments later, in answer to her call, half a dozen motorcycle
patrolmen were outside her place. Just then Detective Edward Mills
came along in his car. Told of what had occurred, Mills declared it was he who had gotten into the car Mrs. Corbett described to the police. Mills said he had left the car parked there while he made a routine inspection of the neighborhood. |

DUDLEY
SCHOOL ROBBED, Patrolmen of the Second and Third districts are attempting to locate boys who are believed to be responsible for two robberies over the weekend. Breaking into the Dudley School, Twenty-Third and High Streets, thieves ransacked teachers' desks in every room and carried off the contents of a telephone box which they tore from the wall. Detective William Casler, investigating the thefts, was unable to learn whether anything had been stolen from the desks. He said he round a number of small fingerprints on the windows through which the robbers entered. The second robbery was reported by Jacob Dubin, of 835 Broadway. He said that a show case in front of his store was broken open and men’s shirts and sweaters valued at $50 stolen |

WILLIAM J. HAINES, Oysters This gentleman established himself in business here about six years ago, and in a neatly fitted up Dining Room, 20x50 feet in dimensions, and with a capacity of seating about sixty persons. In the season Mr. Haines makes a specialty of his Oysters, which he serves to a number of families, as well as to the trade which he has coming to the store to get their lunches. In the summer season he has one of the largest Ice Cream businesses in the city, selling as much as a thousand quarts a week when the weather is favorable. This is sold not only to the consumer but at wholesale as well as retail. All this is manufactured on the premises on the rear. All kinds of Confectionery are also kept in constant stock. Mr. Haines gives employment to eight assistants. He is a native of the State of New Jersey and is prominently connected with the Masons and Red Men. |

ONE of the oldest and most favorably thought of houses in this neighborhood is Anthony's China Hall, this business having been here many years, the present proprietor's son, H. B. Anthony, having established the business in 1868, and the present proprietor took hold of it January 14th, 1878. The store is about 20x80 feet in dimension. Two floors are used as show rooms. Here may be found one of the most complete stocks in the city. All kinds and descriptions of China and Glassware abound as well as a large Lamp Department, in which may be found all the newest and handsomest designs, as well as a full line of Lamp Fittings. A large House Furnishing Goods Department is also run, in which everything of the kind may be found. Six capable and genial assistants are employed. The store is fitted with electric lights and is one of the handsomest in this section. Mr. Anthony is a native of Northumberland, North-Cumberland County, Pa., but has been a resident of the citj' thirty-five years. |

Your postcard 1910 Broadway& Kaighn has a large sort of wire looking column on corner. Well on that corner during World War II there was metal pole painted green. On top there were two sirens for air raid warnings. When [I was very young] World War II ended, we were standing outside what was a cigar store I think by then. There were lots of people around. The siren went off, and everyone started shaking hands, patting each other on the back, even hugging. The siren was confirmation that the war in the Pacific was over. It didn't look like the old newsreel you see but everybody was happy as Hell! John Ciafrani, July 2004 |

1972-1984 The Lansdowne Cafe was renamed in the mid-1970s, and was known as the Jewel Box Cafe, and later as the New Jewel Box Cafe. In 1984 Mel Jones bought the property, and ran it as the Debonair Lounge as late as December of 1985. By September of 1987 the building had been abandoned and was written up for multiple building code violations. The license was sold and transferred to the Boulevard Lounge at 1300 Admiral Wilson Boulevard, the old Sear-Roebuck building. 1447 Broadway is no longer standing. I believe it was razed not long afterwards. |

3 WITH GUNS GET $80 IN BROADWAY HOLDUP Three men, two of them wearing handkerchiefs over their faces, held up a gasoline station attendant at Broadway and Lansdowne Avenue yesterday and escaped with $80, according to detectives. The police said the men entered the place at 2 a.m. and pointed guns at Robert Horner, 17, of 107 Penn street. The man who did not have his face covered tried to hide his identity by holding his handkerchief to his face. Horner told Detective Sergeant Gus Koerner two of the men were in their shirt sleeves while the third wore a tan coat. William Risley, of 1380 Lansdowne Avenue, watchman at a nearby bag factory, said he saw the men "acting suspiciously" in the neighborhood and telephoned police headquarters. |

MEAL CAUSES ARREST OF 'TOMMY' MORELAND Arrested early yesterday when he refused to pay a 50-cent check in a restaurant on Kaighn Avenue near Broadway, "Tommy" Moreland, of 1616 Broadway, was arraigned in police court and released with a suspended sentence. Moreland, a well-known South Camden figure whose name has been connected with numbers activities In Philadelphia's Sixty-ninth street section, pleaded guilty to trying to dodge the meal charge. Although he urged Police Judge Lewis Liberman to dispose of his case quickly in order that he might proceed to his employment as a stevedore in Philadelphia, Moreland was held here until both Camden and Philadelphia police notified the court he was not wanted on other charges. Moreland has previously been convicted for receiving stolen goods and for voting illegally in the Eighth Ward. |

After being hit by a truck and knocked over, it was "rescued" and relocated to a city-owned park by a private citizen, Joseph Balzano, who had grown up near the original site. It should be noted that those in power in Camden at the time had no interest in the project... a sad but telling comment on the state of affairs at city hall in 1981. |
