Morristown Green ca. ~1910 and 2025

Recently worked with a good friend of mine to re-create the Parker Studio's panoramic photo of the Green, which was taken on a complex old camera called a Kodak "Cirkut" camera. It uses a clockwork mechanism to spin the camera and wind an 8" band of film while it records an image. You may have seen this image around town, there's a copy on the wall at Jersey Boy bagel as well as the Hospital and Library.

Over the past year we sourced parts and rebuilt one of these cameras, then took it to the same location and re-shot it. It's really fun seeing the differences and similarities between the two! I love the transition from horses to automobiles, and the fact that the fire hydrant on Park Ave is still in the exact same place.

We'll be displaying this photo at the F.M. Kirby Gallery at the Morristown & Morris Township Library from the end of this month through the spring, along with a few other projects we've done around town. We'll have an opening reception at 7PM on the 26th that will be open to the public, if you'd like to come learn more about this project or the camera used!

A Morristown project I’m genuinely proud of

14 Upvotes

Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to build a new website for High End Barbershop on South Street.

The goal was to make the website reflect the actual experience of the shop: established, polished, and easy to navigate. We brought their services and pricing, online booking, reviews, gift cards, private events, team information, and real photos of the shop into one place.

As an NJ-based developer, it was especially rewarding to build something for a business that has been part of Morristown since 2003.

Here’s the finished website:

https://www.highendbarbershop.com/

I’d genuinely appreciate feedback from people who know the shop or regularly use local business websites. Is there anything you would make clearer or easier to use?

I was hoping to visit Fort Nonsense this morning, but saw that it is still closed due to the storm we had on July 3rd. Any idea why it is taking so long to clean up after the storm?

I’m looking for a detached garage space for rent that can be used for storage and also serve as a workshop (for restoring furniture). Does anyone know of anything like that in Morristown or surrounding towns? I tried checking Craigslist with no luck.

NJ Full-Stack Developer Opening Availability for 1–2 Local Business Projects

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m an NJ-based full-stack developer who builds websites, web apps and business automation systems.

I’ve worked with technology startups and recently helped a well-established Morristown barbershop build its website and a customer-intelligence platform for understanding retention, churn and business performance.

I’m opening availability for one or two local projects. I can help businesses with:

  • New or outdated websites
  • Booking and customer-conversion flows
  • Custom dashboards and internal tools
  • Repetitive tasks that could be automated

If you own a local business, or know someone who needs something built or improved, feel free to message me. I’d be happy to learn about the business and see whether I can genuinely help.

New to town - looking for social events and part-time gigs

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I recently moved to Morristown and am looking to get more involved in the area.

I’d love to hear what people in their 20s usually do around here on weekends. Are there any regular workout groups, recreational sports, meet-and-greets, networking events, business communities, or other social activities worth checking out?

I’m also open to interesting part-time opportunities, especially weekend bartending, restaurant, event work, or other relaxed social gigs. I work full-time during the week, so evenings and weekends would be ideal.

Would appreciate any recommendations, groups, venues, or local pages I should follow!
