Bathroom remodeling isnât all or nothing. You can cut down on bathroom remodel costs by going one step at a time. A bathroom can still benefit from new lighting or ventilation updates followed by a new bathroom vanity or granite countertops. You can always upgrade some features later down the road.
Elizabeth, originally called Elizabethtown and part of the Elizabethtown Tract, was founded in 1664 by English settlers. The town was not named for Queen Elizabeth I as many people may assume, but rather for Elizabeth, wife of Sir George Carteret, one of the two original Proprietors of the colony of New Jersey. She was the daughter of Philippe de Carteret II, 3rd Seigneur de Sark and Anne Dowse.
In 1788 Allegheny County was formed and Elizabeth Township, named in honor of Elizabeth Bayard, wife of the founder of Elizabeth Village, was incorporated as one of its original Townships. Villages in Elizabeth Township were Boston, Greenock, Buena Vista, Industry, and Blythedale. Later the areas of Blaine Hill, Mt. Vernon, Victory, and Central were created. Elizabeth Township is home to the Great Allegheny Passage Trail.
