"A two-story building with pizza restaurant on the bottom and apartments up top stands at 175 Washington Road. This building - originally called the "Penns Neck Food Market" has served many purposes over its life as a commercial building and is a longtime landmark of the historic West Windsor community of Penns Neck.

In September of 1936, Joseph Jerab, already serving as a grocer in Penns Neck, petitioned West Windsor Township to let him build a slaughterhouse here but was rejected by the New Jersey State Board of Health after public outcry. So, the following month, he - and the Tucillo family of Trenton, NJ, opened this newly-built structure as a store and butcher's shop instead."
