Thanks the name sounds cool. I may drive around in the daytime, never at night. I like to see all elements and obviously I only saw the nice spots on this trip.

And where would you recommend for someone mid 20's to 30's to go? Hoboken is fun, but it's a pain to get there some nights. Parking is even more expensive there. I like Morristown because it's convenient and the bars are very close to each other.

I want to disagree Mike but your assessment is 100% accurate.
All of the bars and restaurants and condos that have opened up around the green while nice, have not solved one problem in that city. The illegal population is incredible and the hollow is still the hollow. Morristown HS now needs metal detectors they didn't have those as of 1994- that makes me cringe.
In my early 20s I lived in an apartment off the green, nothing fancy but it was fun to be near the center of town and go out every Friday and Saturday and bring home some sweethearts for the evening. But in the long run the redevelopment has not solved problems only covered them at the tax payers expense.

The question to be asked - is Morristown a better town now then in 1985?
I guess In some ways it is , in some ways it is not.

You had to of graduated with my DIL..I think she was 1994 as well

Grasshopper on the Green is a good place to go if you want to be crammed in like cattle, but it's fun. The Funky Monkey is a good time. A safe place to go would be The Famished Frog, always a good time.....plus free popcorn.

I liked the old Palm Grill better then the stupid Monkey.
