Dear Readers:
You may not have seen this notice, so I am forwarding it to you. The Pine Street Area Project is one of the most important initiatives that is taking place here in the City of Cambridge. As there is much that is historically important about this part of the city and in particular the housing in this area, the city and the state will have to make some important decisions about what properties can be rehabilitated and what are too far gone to fix. It will also need to look at what kinds of houses might be appropriate to replace those that may have to be torn down in order to maintain to the extent possible the historic character of this part of our community.
I was only just made aware of this meeting but wanted to give you a heads up about it. As the liaison to the HPC for City Council, I want to advocate for saving as many of the historic homes in this area as possible. Your presence can help the right decisions being made.
See the announcement below.
Steve
