Blauvelt Store Marks Thirty Years of Growth in Hightstown
G G Blauvelt recalls opening a Stockton Street grocery in 1881 with under 500 dollars in inventory. He notes rapid expansion including post office use space in 1883, the Schenck property in 1890, second floor millinery space in 1892, a second store in 1900, and a major expansion in 1909 giving ten times the original floor space. He thanks supporters and asks for continued patronage to build an even larger store.
