Actually there were 5 Barracks built in New Jersey in 1758, and each about a days march from each other extending from a days march above Philadelphia to a days march below NYC - in Burlington, Trenton, New Brunswick, Perth Amboy, and Elizabethtown. All were roughly the same size (although there is some evidence the Perth Amboy Barracks was a bit larger. Of these, this one in Trenton is the only one remaining.
