mem_winterhillHey Hillens: there was an article in the Globe the other day that I just caught up with. But it covered a number of issues that we should be thinking about.
Forming a more perfect Union Square, by Tim Logan. It covers the development, the tensions, the CBA, neighborhood council, and touches on the Clarendon issues too. I think it's informative about what we could face here on the hill someday. Worth reading.
If you don't have a Globe subscription, of course you can use the local library database to read the articles for free. It doesn't have the photos, but they key info is here.
https://www.minlib.net/online-resources/somerville and see the Boston Globe link. Search with the title.
I also happened to catch this commentary on twitter that is probably good research for us to have. https://twitter.com/bhbradlow/status/1072679453736747015 There's a link to the video from the meeting with the neighborhood council and the alderfolks.

That is: What is lost, and gained, as a rough-edged old city gives way? And how much room should the new make for what came before?https://www.bostonglobe.com/business/2018/12/08/toward-more-perfect-union-square/3ePMp6CNkv7NRFoh7yuPCL/story.html
