The Habitat house being built by Westwood residents and volunteers, at the corner of Highview Street and Burgess Avenue in Westwood, is taking shape. The floor is in. The first floor walls are up. Passersby can start to better imagine what the house will look like, and how it will blend in with the other capes in the neighborhood.
This Saturday, July 31, 2021, is the next scheduled build day. Another 6 volunteers and a site manager will work together to add to the construction.
Volunteers are still needed for upcoming Saturday build days on August 7, 14, and 28. To volunteer for this South Shore Habitat for Humanity build, click here.
I completely agree. Washington St. also has some terrible patches, especially the handicap ramps. I don’t understand why the DPW is responsible for clearing sidewalks in front of homes and businesses. It seems that those should be the responsibility of the property owner.
The sidewalks on High Rock and Hartford have been pretty treacherous this winter too. I didn't contact DPW about it though.
Cloudy , with a high of 41 and low of 26 degrees. Overcast during the morning, sunny in the afternoon, partly cloudy during the evening, overcast overnight.
A true hero, though I'm not sure about the naming of the intersection after him. We already have a school named after him. Is there no one else who dedicated their life to this Town that the intersection could be named in memory of?
Thanks for the comment. Perhaps other candidates for a named intersection might be considered by the Select Board if presented with a petition or similar process as what was used here.
