What we learn we see in the works..(of course) develop as it is full part of building on six-story.
Very nice 2 family recently developed block. One home owner holds out. So the city buids new homes around it. Several yrs later home is sold. Developer plans to build a 6 story 12 unit structure. Does that change the fabric of the block? How does the homeowners feel? Beautiful baseball school yard across the street.
