R iverview M edical C enter The current Matawan Train Station sits east of Atlantic Avenue in Matawan, while the new station will be built on the west side of Atlantic Avenue, across the Aberdeen border. NJ Transit has determined that a new station is necessary in order to comply with federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines. At the council’s Feb. 2 meeting, Mayor Robert Clifton said that, with ground set to break soon on the new station, he had been asked by NJ Transit officials to seek council and public opinion regarding the possibility of calling the new station the Aberdeen Train Station. Often at odds since the year began, the evenly split council was united in its opposi tion to the name change, and members were eager to put their opinions on the record. “I oppose the name change,” said Republican Council President Bea Duffy. Democratic Councilman Jim Shea E x p e rie n c e agreed, adding he believes it is “ludicrous that they have to build another station. (NJ Transit) could have thought of a better plan,” one that would have been less costly. As for his thoughts on the possible name change, Councilman Joseph Wallace joked, “Take note of the date and time, because I agree with Councilman Shea.” The remaining council members agreed, with the council voting unanimously to oppose the name change.

INDEPENDENT, FEBRUARY 11, 1998 2 1 Storyteller charms Cliffwood children Visit part of A berdeen school's Black H istory M onth celebration BY LIN D A D eNICOLA Staff Writer toryteller Charlotte Blake Austin held her young audience in the S palms of her expressive hands as she told a variety of stories and played exotic African instruments such as the Shekere, a beaded gourd. The Philadelphia storyteller and Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Artist of the Year told fourth- and fifth-graders at Cliffwood Elementary School in Ab erdeen folk stories from African cultures, African-American stories and personal stories. She reminded the children that February is like a birthday, “a time when we focus on all of the achievements of African Americans.” Wearing traditional African dress and shaking the Shekere, she told the children a story about herself and how she spent 19 years teaching in an elementary school before she became interested in story telling. “I wanted to learn about other cultures and ethnicity. I learned that people passed on their history by telling stories,” she said. Then she told them about how Roots author Alex Haley traced his ancestry back to Africa.

With that knowledge in mind, the Monmouth County Historical Association was bom in 1898 for the purpose of col lecting, preserving and interpreting mate rial pertaining to the region’s heritage. The association’s founding fathers no doubt realized that the county already had a rich history even though the United States was little more than 100 years old. The Monmouth County Board of Free holders recognized the occasion of the as sociation’s 100th anniversary with a proclamation at a recent meeting. A gala dinner-dance will be held in October or November to celebrate the occasion, according to Dr. Lee Ellen Griffith, director of the association, which has its headquarters at 70 Court St. in Freehold Borough. A book will be published this year cen tering on the history of the association, she said. “The book will include 100 prime ob jects from our museum and archives that HOME SWEET HOME — The Monmouth County Historical Association operates out of a stylish building on Court Street, have been collected over the years,” Grif Freehold Borough.

Before the Luyster House can be moved from the AT&T property on Hol land Road to the Middletown Historic District on Red Hill Road, the property has to be rezoned. Last week the committee introduced an ordinance to change the half-acre Red Hill Road lot, which is part of the AT&T tract, from office research to residential, in keeping with the surrounding property. A public hearing on the ordinance is scheduled for Feb. 17. Right now the Luyster House is located at 199 Holland Road, on the north side of the street, about 400 feet east of Laurel Avenue. In order to expand the AT&T complex on Laurel Avenue, the developer, David S. Steiner of Steiner Equities Group in Roseland, who owns the property and the house, had to find a way to preserve the house as a condition of approval by the Planning Board. The 1 1/2-story house has been vacant for a number of years. It was built by TO BE REZONED — This wooded half-acre lot on the AT&T property in Middletown will be rezoned to accommodate a historic Johannes Luyster about 1727, according to old house.
