Princeton, New Jersey locals all know the “tap room,” a legendary tavern with a beloved historic fireplace and the Nassau Inn’s most popular amenity. The space features a large Norman Rockwell painting over the bar, depicting Yankee Doodle riding his pony, painted in the room directly on a canvas attached to the masonry.
JZA+D restored the bar to its original linear profile, replacing the worn-out 1970s era U-shaped bar. The gesture returns the room to its original layout and allows patrons to see the painting up close, while introducing more room for tables and better access for all to the fireplace.
