This aerial photo of Plainsboro taken on October 23, 1982 shows how progress has shaped the community we enjoy today. In the center of the photo, look for the dirt road destined to become the modern Scudders Mill Road. Notice how it snakes its way through farm fields. How many landmarks can you identify in this photo? What buildings are here now that weren’t here when this picture was taken 41 years ago?
