Today, after more than eight years of closure, the Reading Senior Center is officially reopening its doors to Trenton seniors.
Mayor W. Reed Gusciora, members of Trenton City Council, local, county and state officials, and Trenton seniors gathered Thursday, September 10, for a ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the return of this historic community landmark.
Originally built in 1888 as a passenger station for the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, the building later became a cherished gathering place for generations of Trenton seniors, offering meals, recreation, social activities, wellness programs and access to essential services.
Todayβs reopening marks the culmination of a years-long effort by the Gusciora Administration and Trenton City Council to restore the historic facility and return it to the community.
Welcome back, Reading Senior Center!
