I took these photos of this landmark building from my car with my iPhone on my way to Costco today.
The Museum of Early Trades and Crafts originally opened its doors as a library in 1900. The library is still housed upstairs in this beautifully restored building that features 56 stained glass windows, 8 chandeliers, 3 fireplaces and stenciled brick walls. Learn about New Jersey history and culture by visiting the museum on your own, or arrange for a guided tour conducted by the museum's friendly and knowledgeable staff.

This is stunning and your pictures are wonderful. I am so glad that the library is still there. In fact, I am delighted that there are still libraries. For awhile it looked that they might be the next to leave us.
What a beautiful building. I wish there were more of this style of architecture being built in our region.

Now that's what a library should look like.
