If you’ve been a reader of the blog for any extended time, you know how much we like taking photos of buildings getting knocked down.

The old Triangle Inn finally came down last week, along with several homes along Monroe Street. The properties will make way for Renaissance at Rahway, a five-story, 88-unit rental complex with ground floor parking. The development will take up the the portion of Montgomery Street between East Grand Avenue and Monroe.

Demolition work appears to have started within the past week at the site of Renaissance at Rahway.

Work seems to have started primarily at the former Triangle Inn, a three-story building at the corner of Monroe and Montgomery streets.

The four-story project will include 88 rental units. It was originally proposed as a 72-unit condo complex before developers got approval last summer from the Redevelopment Agency to switch to rentals. The Planning Board gave its approval in the fall.
