This Saturday, May 7th, 10am to Noon:

During the Montrose Park Historic District Association's annual Mountain Station cleanup on Saturday May 7th, MPHDA will sell the old street signs that formerly designated streets in the historic district. The old street signs reflect our evolving history and make a great gift for a friend or family member who grew up or spent time living in Montrose Park. Maybe someone who moved away would love to have the sign from the street where they lived! Current residents or those who used to live in Montrose who have a particular affinity for the street where they live will also be interested in this unique, one-time opportunity. Buy it now and gift it during the holidays.

Signs sold on May 7th at Mountain Station will be sold at the “Buy it Now” price of $75 per sign, FIRST COME FIRST SERVED BASIS. Following our May 7th pre-auction sale, the remaining street signs will be sold on eBay (or on another on-line auction site at a reserve price of $25, or “buy it now” price of $75. Proceeds from the sale of the street signs will go towards MPHDA's proposed Grove Park Pavilion project and other MPHDA activities or projects.

FOR MANY STREETS, THERE ARE ONLY A FEW SIGNS, SO DON'T MISS THIS ADVANCE SALE OPPORTUNITY!!!!!

While you're there, we encourage you to participate in the annual cleanup, mulch spreading, and planting of annuals at the Vose Avenue side of Mountain Station. Mountain Station is an important landmark in the historic district and serves as one of the most important gateways to our neighborhood. Green thumbs are not required. The cleanup usually lasts approximately two hours. Please bring your own rake, pruning sheers, or other gardening gear.

If you have any questions, please email: info@MontroseParkSONJ.org
