Wikipedia:Wikipedia Takes America/2013/Middlesex and Monmouth County, NJ

Wikipedia Takes  is part of Wikipedia Takes America and Wiki Loves Monuments in the US in September or October 2013. It is a photo scavenger hunt in which people take pictures of landmarks and notable locations in the counties of Middlesex and Monmouth. Automobiles recommended; this is largely suburban territory.

Some potential monuments and landmarks:
 * Edison Monument
 * Atlantic Highlands
 * Progress in recovery from Hurricane Sandy at the Shore
 * Keansburg
 * The train stations. Aberdeen-Matawan is interesting, because it went through multiple stages of development, and then they were left there instead of demolished. New Brunswick is a nice old station; Metropark is pretty new, and there are plenty of others.
 * Sandy Hook
 * New Brunswick's skyscrapers
 * PNC Bank Towers in East Brunswick
 * Englishtown Auction Flea Market
 * Route 9 and its shopping centers and bus route

Anything else you can think of?


 * Date and start time: Early October?
 * A suggested time is 12 noon on Saturday September 21, but you can pick differently based on local conditions.


 * Starting point: By Mendoker's Bakery in Jamesburg, NJ?
 * Pick a starting point for the day, probably outside near a downtown landmark. Greet everyone and explain how it all works. Bring a Wikipedia sign or something similar for recognition!


 * After-party place and time (optional): maybe a shore location
 * Optionally, designate a cozy spot for an after-party in the evening, can be a bar or restaurant. If you can upload some photos there too, all the better.
