Roche Bros presented last night to the Downtown Study Committee and immediately following to the Historic District Commission.
I was quite impressed with the answers that I heard at the Downtown Study Committee to the questions that were posed. There was a combination of real neighborliness, combined with a realism about making a busy store work in their downtown Main Street storefront location.
The facades will look so good, both front and back. The building renovations will dress up the downtown substantially. The living wall is still undergoing consideration for the types of plants, the bright green Main Street color scheme is not finalized, and they were open to my suggestion to somehow include a community notice element along the South Street wall, where banners were hung announcing all manner of town events when Lord’s was there.
The best news for me was how respectful and accommodating the real estate facilities person was in trying to both address all concerns and provide logical solutions – refreshing for a developer.

Very nice update. Thank you. Forgive my ignorance but are you an interested town resident or do you have some formal political role in the town? Either way, great update. The question was just one of curiosity.

Lisa,
I am a selectman and started the blog to try to share with residents some of the information that I see because I am a selectman, or in the case of the Downtown Study Committee meeting on which I reported, because as a selectman I see it as part of my job to go to a lot of the meetings of various committees in order to stay up with the issues, so that I can then share with residents what I learn. Thanks for letting me know the information was appreciated.
Pete
