Re: the Oct. 29. article “East-Side neighborhoods challenge plans for large grocery store”
It is my hope that a fair compromise be achieved with the Houghton East Neighborhood's and Fry's plans at 22nd and Houghton. Too often, gross economics dominate thoughtful/planned development. Possibly, the 22nd Street Baptist Church, which owns the parcel, could mediate with the focus to defend, protect, and value all human life , including the adjacent neighbors?
