\”I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.

GLOUCESTER CITY NJ–As you drive north on Broadway from Brooklawn into Gloucester City, the first thing you see is the Gloucester City water tower at the Broadway and Jersey Avenue intersection. The city-owned property is surrounded by unkempt shrubs, and weeds, some higher than six feet tall. The vacant lot on the side of the site is also in a similar condition. On either side of the plot is a rusty cyclone fence, some of it falling down. The city is now using the site to pile fill dirt and stones. Every so often you will see a few city highway workers cutting the grass, but the unkempt shrubbery is untouched.
