Location

In a semi-industrial area in the Fords, a borough in Woodbridge Township, Union County.

Participants

Jevanyn

Plans

I had an ho9ur between a birthday dinner in Cranford and a reunion in Roselle Park, and Woodbridge was only 15 minutes away.

Expedition

The geohash was in the Fords, in a largely industrial area.

On Industrial Avenue was the New Jersey Convention and Expo Center, looking empty with no convention or exposition in progress. The geohash was just to the south down a gravel road, but my expedition stopped at the gate, with a No Trespassing sign and no recollection of a way to turn the van around. It was dark already, and I didn't fancy the idea of backing up the length of the gravel road.
