FOURTH STREET was one of Camden's original streets, and over the years expanded far beyond its original length, now running south to north, with few interruptions, from Chelton Avenue to Pyne Point in North Camden. |

Miss Avery Is Bride At Church Ceremony Miss Evelyn Jeanette Avery's marriage to Howard D. Summerfield on Saturday was one of the interesting church weddings of June. The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Avery of 904 North Fourth Street, and the bridegroom a son of Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Summerfield, of 318 Byron Street, this city. The seven o'clock ceremony took place in the Epiphany Lutheran Church, Seventh and Market Streets, with the pastor of the church, Rev. Paul C. Weber officiating. Merrill Hallowell will play the wedding march and accompany Mrs. Lois Bausman in vocal numbers. Mr. Avery gave his daughter in marriage. She wore a white crepe gown made en train, a lace jacket made with leg o'mutton sleeves. A tulle veil, cap fashion, was caught with orange blossoms. Her flowers were bride roses, lillies of the valley and baby breath. William McKinney, of Gloucester Heights, attended the bridegroom as best man and ushers were Milton Avery, Charles Kendall and George Hand, of Camden. On their return from a motor tour of New England, Mr. and Mrs. Summerfield will receive, after July, at 2234 Thirty-seventh street, Pennsauken. Both the bride and bridegroom are graduates of Camden High School. |

1887-1930 Charles A Rose was born in NY about 1858. He moved to Camden where he worked as a printer for the City from at least 1900 through at least 1930 (yes, he was still working at the age of 72!). In 1881 he married Ida Vogt and they had 4 children that I could find: Clarence C, born 1887; Janette K, born 1889; Harry Burnley (my grandfather), born 1890; and Jean, born about 1894. He owned 612 North 4th Street from at least 1887 through at least 1930. Valerie

DRIVER GIVEN 15 DAYS AS HE ADMITTED DRINKING When he admitted he had been drinking prior to an automobile accident in which his car figured, Joseph Carlton, 27, of Magnolia, was fined $50 by Judge Pancoast in police court yesterday. Unable to pay the fine, Carlton was sentenced to serve 15 days in the county jail. Complaint was made by Walter J. Patton, 601 North Fourth Street, driver if the other cart, who testified the collision occurred last night at Kaighn Avenue and Locust Street. In addition to being jailed, Carlton appeared to have "gotten the worst" of the accident, for his head was bandaged as he came to court. |

Bridge Board to Take 27
Properties
as Safety Zone for Rail Underpass Twenty-seven properties, some of which are landmarks of generations past, are to be acquired by the Delaware River Joint Commission to make way for the proposed North Fourth Street underpass beneath tracks of the Camden bridge rapid transit line. The properties extend along both sides of Fourth Street, from Linden to Main. Their 1932 valuation totaled $133.875 but recent general reductions in assessment for 1933 may cut this figure to $110,000. Curtis' Old Home In explaining the condemnation proceedings to be taken, Joseph K. Costello, secretary to the joint commission, said that a commission, composed of Camden real estate men, will be appointed to value each parcel of property involved. The owners will be reimbursed at whatever figures the commission sets. The properties are occupied mostly two and three-story houses. The most valuable piece of property affected is the Linden Apartments at Fourth and Linden streets, assessed at $10,525. Although the building, which once was the home of Cyrus H. K. Curtis, Philadelphia publisher, faces Linden street, it is listed as 401 North Fourth Street. Largest of the parcels is the 25 by 95-foot property of Genevieve A. Toram, at 417 North Fourth Street assessed at $7750. The others range from $3225 to $6000. Two other properties in the neighborhood may be acquired at Fifth and Linden Streets, where the high-speed line subway will swing south on Fifth Street. Engineers have not however, decided whether they will be needed. The properties in question are 430 and 432 Linden street, assessed respectively, at $5975 and $7800. 432, because it is on the southwest corner, is more likely to be taken, according to Costello. It is owned by Harry L. Warren. George W. and Lillie H. Tasch and C. Rolf and Eleanor T. Stanley own in equal shares the building at 439 Linden street. According to plans of Ralph Modjeski, bridge engineer, the Fourth Street underpass will begin at Linden street and end at Main. A similar tube will be constructed in Philadelphia on Fifth street, from Cherry street to Callowhill at a total cost of $1,112,300. The Camden underpass would cost only $275,000, Modjeski estimates, including a separate tunnel for pedestrians. The Camden underpass is necessary because under Modjeski's plans the high-speed line will reach street level at the West side of Fourth Street and cross to enter the ground in a curve toward Fifth Street. Underpass Seen Necessary Unless the underpass is constructed, it would be necessary to block all traffic on Fourth Street. Fifth Street already is shut off because of the bridge and eliminating Fourth Streett would seriously interfere with vehicular travel between North Camden and the central section of the city. Fourth Street will remain a two-way thoroughfare and because of the necessity of building four-foot walls topped with large railings to protect pedestrians and motorists against the danger of falling into the ramp, the Fourth Street properties will have to be tom down, it was explained by Costello. This added width, Costello said, will permit the free flow of traffic to Pearl street. Fourth Street, from curh to curb, will measure 76 feet, with the underpass in the center measuring 28 feet from the insides of the walls and 36 feet overall. There will be 8 10-foot sidewalk on each side which will make the distance from building line to building line 96 feet. The surface traffic lanes, northbound on the east side of the underpass and southbound on the west side, each will measure 20 feet. These measurements will mean the destruction of 18 feet of the properties required. Owners of other properties and their assessed valuations, are listed in the city tax office as follows: 401 Linden street- South Camden Trust Company, assessed at $6000 (property occupies all of east side of Fourth Street, running north to property owned by joint commission on Pearl street; all other addresses listed are on North Fourth Street). Fourth Street Properties 403-Joseph B. and Mary S. Lane, $4575. 405-Frank Dumbleton, Jr., $5325. 407-Harry B. and Esther J. Dodamead, $5325. 409-Margaret E. Senderling, $5325. 411-Harry H. Titelman, $4950. 413-Joseph C. and Evelyn Lee, $4950. 415-Charles M., and Louisa Clinger, $5800. 507-George B.

The Fourth Street
Tunnel While you can drive a car under the Ben Franklin Bridge at street level from North 3rd Street east, at 4th Street there is a tunnel, closed in the early 1980s, that provided amusement for generations of local kids on bicycles, and aggravation for most adults responsible for public safety. At 5th Street there is a pedestrian tunnel, which is still in use. |

2 views of the 4th Street tunnel, looking South. Note the cobblestone paving, and the stairway leading up to the pedestrian walkway on the bridge. Boys and girls from North Camden would take advantage of the ramps to roller skate and bicycle in days gone by. Imagine THAT in 2004! Thanks to Earl Crim, Jim Bessing, and John Ciafrani for talling me about the tunnel. Click on Images to Enlarge "You had to cross the railroad tracks on Main street to go or come from tunnel. There were no rail crossing gates, just a railroad crossing with blinking lights and a bell. A lot of guys would hop those boxcars for a short ride. That was a fun trip, but dangerous."

PHONE CALL DISPROVES MAN'S STORY IN COURT Harry Bolt, 35, of 337 South Fourth Street, might have "gotten away" with his story in police court yester day if Judge Pancoast had not received a telephone call. Charged with beating his wife, Bolt told the court that his wife did not wish to press the charges and would not appear against him. "Is that so?" the court asked. "Your wife notified me through a friend that she was sick in bed from the abuse you gave her and intended to make the complaint when able to get here." Bolt was held in $500 ball for a hearing today.. |

CITY EMPLOYEE IS FREED IN GUN-CARRYING CASE When
Paul Genovese, 48 years old, of 613 South 4th Street, a city gardener,
was arraigned in police court this morning on a charge of carrying
concealed deadly weapons, he told Judge
Bertman he did not know it was illegal to carry firearms. Sentence
was suspended after a severe reprimand. Genovese was arrested Sunday night at Third and Washington Streets by Policeman Gus Koerner. The case was postponed to produce additional witnesses. In
court this morning Koerner
said he found Genovese chasing another man with the gun. The policeman
said Genovese was intoxicated. Bertman
rebuked the defendant and told him that just because he was a city
employee and wore a badge he was not entitled to carry a gun and
blackjack. In suspending sentence he told him he could not carry a
weapon at any time in the future under any circumstances without the
proper permit |

I grew up going to 4th Street every Sunday to my grandparents, 716 South 4th Street. Salvatore and Anna Giglio, my grandparents that owned that home. They are referenced on Mount Carmel boosters. (Mr and Mrs Salvatore Giglio) Maryann Giglio and Emanuel Giglio were their children. My father worked at Allied Chemical... Vtec was where my grandfather worked. I went to the corner store at 4th and Pine every Sunday but I think I was "playing the numbers" for my grandmom! I always had a piece of paper with numbers on it that I handed to the owner behind the counter and then my 3 siblings and I got Breyer's ice cream on cones and left. Horseshoes was always played on the sidewalk. They would hammer the stakes into the crack on the sidewalk and I remember they made a lot of racket while we all watched. Anna

“My maternal grandparents moved here from 419 Beckett Street. When they moved in, the house had a storefront, which my grandfather replaced with two living room windows. He was a fruit and produce man, and sometimes he would let the grandkids help him pack tomatoes in the basement. – Donna

1919-1964 Joseph Nazzario My Grandfather started his first and only shop on South 4th Street in Camden. The shop closed up after his passing in 1964. He was a long time parishioner of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, and a member of its Italian Holy Name Society. When I was a kid, I remember going with him to one of his long time customers house, who was confined to a bed for a while. A free haircut and shave was provided free at no charge . The 50th Anniversary Book of his parish was placed on this site in his memory." Gene

I was born and raised in Camden. My name is Vincenzo Buttari III. I was born at 2025 Fillmore Street then moved to 1902 South 4th Street. I remember playing as a kid in the old brewery. I still to this day look for all memorabilia. I'm related to the cop [Clifford] Del Rossi. People ask me if I'm from South Philly because of the way I talk. I tell them I used to chew those guys up and spit them out, I'm from SOUTH CAMDEN. My wife thinks I'm nuts. I tell her that is who I am. Vince
