Lets see, they approved the mowing down of wooded area and the progress of suburban type development, yet did not approve a project that would revive a troubled area?
Is that really going in where Marott park is????
*scratching head*
Curt, it’s north of Park Tudor…other side of College from Marott Park.
Proof of one thing: they’re not making any more land in Williams Creek. What’s there is valuable enough to knock down an old house and subdivide at a profit…that will most certainly not be a vinyl village of $130K homes.
The goofy thing is…there was a home on the site with driveway access from Park Ave.!!!
Yeah I meant to say across the street from Marott…
Is that the subdivision without sidewalks?
If you look at the south side of the street, it appears that there is a sidewalk there. Chris pointed this out to me, or I would have thought the same.
