There were simply too many unknowns for us to make a significant home investment in that area of Watchung.

Sounds like you made a better choice.

I love Watchung. I worked at my dads station from 76 until the 90's. Used to go across the street to the waterfall and up the mountain over by Valley Road. It's pretty cool up there. We also used to ice skate on the lake on Valley Road. My dad used to plow it.
