Steel Dinosaurs The steel dinosaurs are looking awesome! If you go up Avenue A at the split you get a better view of the 2 dinosaurs and the caveman. (without going on their property). Or continue up Industrial Dr. to see the one dinosaur closest to the road. [Emily, 09/12/2011]
Steel Dinosaurs Life-sized Steel Dinosaurs! [Mandy Wright, 03/27/2009][RA: According to the folks at G.J. Oliver, visitors can no longer enter the field and pose with the dinosaurs. "There are forklifts and cranes running all over; it's a liability," they told us. Visitors can still admire the dinos from the road and the upper part of the parking lot.]
Steel Dinosaurs A male friend of mine asked if I wanted to see "dinosaurs in Jersey." I was more than a bit doubtful about his intentions, but I went along. I mean, I love dinosaurs. Sure enough, just off of Hwy. 22 in the town of Alpha near the Pennsylvania border are three dinosaurs and a caveman -- all built of carbon steel. Beautiful! The most incredible was a 20-ft. tall Brachiosaurus. The first to be seen was a perfect stegasaurus. All of them are on the property of G.J. Oliver, Inc., a steel fabrication company.
