New Haven Independent

It's great to see New Haven bucking the negative economic trends and expanding - especially in the not so obvious target areas. The optimist in me sees great opportunity in building(rebuilding) a sattelite neighborhood to bring some prosperity, via business, to areas that have not been popular for quite some time.

No if we can olny keep from destroying ourselves via an overly burdensome taxing process....

Whoa! This is a straight-up surprise to those of us active in the 'hood! I am cautiously optimistic about this and hope that it turns out to be a good thing!

25 Science Park seems to be a positive addition to the neighborhood. But there is still agitation and tension among residents about the 1000 space parking garage that is being built to accommodate 25 science park employees and others.

Can't wait to learn about the developer's plans for this new acquisition.

As a neighbor my observation has been that when they say they're going to do something they do it, and at least as well as they said they would. That's definitely a good thing for this neighborhood, which has seen many false starts through the years. I'm curious to see what they want to do with the "new" factory.
