East Princeton is a village of Princeton and does not have its own town hall. Stopped at the intersection described above. Note the new circle in the road, adapted from my home state, New Jersey. Never a fan of them but growing up in NJ learned how to navigate them. Have to be somewhat aggressive. Timidity will get you stuck at the intersection.
