For the past couple of days – not sure about today – two companies have drilled sample holes at this site. Pumping and well collection of contaminates was undertaken on the lot for a number of years. The equipment for that phase was removed a few years ago.  A sign seeking interested retail renters went up about the same time as the well collection effort stopped and the site has remained empty.

The technicians on the site could not relate what phase they were atnow, but indicated nothing was planned for the site at present.

The site was for years a gasoline station and also had a strange collection of old bomb casings and such stuff in the rear of the lot in the 70’s and 80’s.

    It would be great to see a building built here right to the street. I think we can be confident that it won’t be another gas station or liquor store set far back from the street with generic architecture. Hopefully it won’t be a strip mall.
