− Nonprofits Respond to Damage from Tropical Storm Irene−
Senator Patrick Leahy will join Brattleboro Housing Partnerships and Housing Vermont to celebrate the start of construction of new senior housing. Red Clover Commons, a 55-unit development located on Fairground Road, will replace public housing at Melrose Terrace which was damaged during Tropical Storm Irene. While that damage was repaired, it was clear that seniors and those with disabilities needed to be relocated to a safer site.
WHAT: Ground breaking to mark the start of construction of Red Clover Commons.
WHO: Brattleboro Housing Partnerships, Housing Vermont, Senator Patrick Leahy and representatives from public and private funders, local officials, project participants and the public.
WHEN: 2:30 pm, Monday, August 31, 2015.
WHERE: 30 Fairground Road, Brattleboro, Vermont.

Site work
I saw some preliminary work being done at the site the other day, and almost added it to the “noticed about town” story, but figured I’d leave it for someone else to notice. : )
Nice to see this moving along.
