Tweeting about the challenge of replacing lost Spruces housing

   Can #williamstown envision two developments -- one reusing a business site and another using a small portion of Lowry fields, replicated?

2. Might displaced #spruces residents react favorably to being part of an innovative "new urbanism" effort in #williamstown, Massachusetts?

3. How about surveying all displaced #spruces residents who still wish to return to #williamstown to find out what sort of housing they want?

4. #spruces How about preparing a spread sheet with pros and cons of all sites, including per unit costs, to promote dispassionate analysis?

5. #spruces If we use a few acres at Lowery for housing, let's commit to dedicating an = amt of Spruces land vibrant, food-producing gardens !

6. #spruces Can we move beyond detached individual homes to a co-housing project that innovates in land, energy and materials use?

7. #spruces Can we move beyond making a choice between agricultural land open space preservation and affordable housing in #williamstown?
